Chiral Matter - Proceedings Of The Nobel Symposium 167
A geometric figure has chirality, or handedness, if its mirror image cannot be brought to coincide with itself. The concept of chirality was instrumental in establishing the tetrahedral valences of the carbon atom, and has continued to play a key role in chemistry and molecular biology ever since.The fact that living organisms use only one of two mirror isomers of such molecules as amino acids and sugars, that is, the question of the origin of homochirality of the molecular basis of life, remains an unsolved problem of the same dignity as the origin of dark matter and dark energy.The increasing importance of chirality and topology in condensed matter physics and chemistry, and the production of new states of matter in heavy-ion collisions, have brought the concept of chirality into physics and cosmology in a tangible way while at the same time expanded the physics/chemistry interface. The book is the first to address all aspects of chirality in a single volume.

Overcoming Overuse: Energy Transformation for a World Gone Fad
An increasing number of experts argue that we need to cut down on our energy use. Then why has so little activity started to actually solve this problem? The answer is that we need strong leadership, a program of managed change and clear communication to all citizens describing their role in the transformation process. Additionally, we need mental images of the future of our society and the way forward through the transformation program.Despite the urgency of the situation, few understand what the future will demand and how we can solve the issues that now face humanity. Mats R. Larsson tells us that we need to face the issues related to energy systems transformation. In order for society to do this, we need strong and determined leaders who are not afraid of telling the truth and make tough decisions. In this book he outlines many of the leadership challenges that face us, and he provides a way forward.

Dissociative Recombination: Theory, Experiments And Applications Iv
Dissociative recombination is a complex molecular process that occurs in any plasma cold enough to contain molecular constituents. It is the dominant recombination process in planetary ionospheres and interstellar clouds. In this book, recent developments in the fields of molecular ion physics, atomic and molecular theory, astrochemistry, aeronomy and plasma physics are discussed.

The Blind Guardians of Ignorance
The Covid-19 pandemic is not the last surprise that awaits present generations. In 2020 people across the globe have realized that governments have failed to prepare for important challenges, even highly probable ones predicted by experts for decades. Greta Thunberg has scolded world leaders for not doing more to stop global warming. Greta and other experts seem to believe that there are plans for the transformation to sustainability waiting in the drawers of heads of state to become implemented, but there are no such plans. Sustainability experts have focused on climate change — nobody has developed the large-scale solutions that Greta asks for. Instead, politicians, business leaders, and...
