Sign-up to the PCCP table-of-contents e-alert to see some of the great catalysis work we publish!
The two day event on Catalysis for a Sustainable World, held in the Chemistry Centre in London, aims to bring together scientists working from the UK and Japan. It offers an opportunity for networking and international collaboration and will begin to strengthen links between the RSC and CSJ.
Richard Pike (CEO, RSC) also made an exciting announcement about the launch of a brand new journal from RSC Publishing – Catalysis Science & Technology!
The latest citation data released by Thomson ISI in June 2010 reveals that PCCP’s Impact Factor has risen again, to its highest ever value of 4.116
Latest Impact Factors for Physical Chemistry Journals
Coupled with very strong recent growth in submissions, these impressive trends underline the continuing success of PCCP.
We thank all of our authors, readers and referees for their support which has led to these successes.

Astroelectrochemistry: the role of redox reactions in cosmic dust chemistry
Daren J. Caruana and Katherine B. Holt, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2010, 12, 3072
The search of the origin of life’s molecular building blocks has extended into interstellar space to find evidence of life forming chemicals. As yet no positive identification of molecules that can be considered as precursors to living systems on earth has been made. But, a rich mixture of complex chemicals has been discovered in the spaces between stars in our galaxy, which brings the question of how are these chemicals synthesised?
Richard Ernst, PCCP Honorary Board
PCCP Honorary Board member Richard Ernst, who won the 1991 Nobel Prize for his work on NMR spectroscopy, talks to Chemistry World about his career, the future of NMR spectroscopy and his love of Tibetan art.
