We are delighted to announce that the Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) themed issue Festschrift for Peter Toennies – New horizons in the dynamics of molecules: from gases to surfaces is now online and free to access until the beginning of July 2021.
This themed issue is in honour of Professor Jan-Peter Toennies on the occasion of his 90th birthday.
Professor Toennies is a very well-known physical chemist, Emeritus Director of the Max Planck Institute für Strömungsforschung (now the MPI für Dynamik und Selbstorganisation) in Göttingen, and is still actively publishing even today. A few of his fields of research are molecular beams scattering in the gas phase, chemical reactions, atomic and molecular beams scattering from surfaces, surface structure and dynamics, He dimers, small clusters and nanodroplets.
Guest Edited by Professor Giorgio Benedek, Professor Joseph R. Manson and Professor Salvador Miret-Artés, this collection includes work closely related to Professor Toennies’ fields of research.
