Energetics, spectroscopy and dissociation dynamics of bimolecular complexes of atmospheric importance

关于全球变暖的争论说明了在计算大气变化时有一个坚实的科学基础的重要性。在大气化学的计算中，把所有的途径和种类都考虑进去是很重要的。最近发现分子间复合物可能在大气化学中起作用。其中，与水有关的发现非常重要，因为水有形成强氢键的能力。该项目将为最重要的配合物之一——水-羟基自由基配合物提供关键的实验数据。

The Global Warming debate illustrates the importance of having a firm scientific underpinning to calculations of the atmosphere. It is important in calculations of atmospheric chemistry to have all pathways and species properly accounted for. It has recently emerged that intermolecular complexes may play a role in atmospheric chemistry. Of these, those involving water are very important because of water's ability to form strong hydrogen bonds. This project will provide key experimental data on one of the most important complexes, the water-hydroxyl radical complex.
