Gordon Research Conferences on Chemical Reactions at Surfaces
Ventura, California
February 8-13, 2009
Chemical reactions at surfaces underlie some of the most important processes of today, including catalysis, energy conversion, and environmental health, topics important to the U.S. Department of Energy's missions. The Gordon Research Conference on Chemical Reactions at Surfaces is one of the premiere meetings in the field.
Michael A. Henderson of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Institute for Interfacial Catalysis served as Vice Chair of this conference. He also provided the closing remarks at the liquid/solid and liquid/gas interfaces discussion.
Bruce Kay of the IIC led the 2-hour discussion on liquid/solid and liquid/gas interfaces.
In addition, IIC scientists presented research from their teams at the conference. These types of presentations are important in disseminating information to the scientific community.
Here are a few examples:
Aaron Deskins Carboxylic Acid Dissociation over Rutile TiO2(110)
Zdenek Dohnalek Defect and Adsorbate Dynamics on TiO2(110)
Janos Szanyi Formation and Thermal Decomposition of Nitrites and Nitrates on
The BaO/Pt(111) Model Catalyst
Yingge Du Oxygen Interaction with a Partially Hydroxylated TiO2(110) Surface.
