Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
“Physical chemistry is everything that is interesting and exciting!” is a quote often attributed to G. N. Lewis. While there are many different definitions of the discipline, it is characterized by the use of physical theory, models and methods in the study of chemistry. The discipline is defined by its approach rather than by the nature of the systems studied—a stark contrast to the other chemistry disciplines.
Physchem is the first exclusive open-source journal dedicated to the disciplines of Physical Chemistry and Chemical Physics. In this inaugural Issue, we want to showcase the contributions of the discipline to solve the pressing problems facing mankind in the coming decade, such as climate change, renewable energy security, and sustainable development. We aim to publish manuscripts covering the multitude of themes at the intersection of physics and chemistry. In particular, we welcome manuscripts on research contributing to the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
