Preliminary Program subject to change
01G03 Topics in Surface Science and Catalysis
OverviewThis session features focuses on surface science studies in the area of catalysis. We welcome both experimental and modeling work focusing on elucidating phenomena relevant to catalysis through fundamental surface science studies. This session is not restricted to ultra-high vacuum work, and we are especially interested in surface science studies under realistic reaction conditions.
