Abstract
The ongoing shift toward clean, sustainable energy is a primary driving force behind hydrogen fuel research. Safe and effective storage of hydrogen is a major challenge (particularly for mobile applications) and requires a detailed understanding of the atomic level interactions of hydrogen with its host materials. The light mass of hydrogen, however, implies that quantum effects are important, so a quantum dynamical treatment is required to properly account for these effects in computational simulations. As one such example, we describe herein the hydrogen exchange dynamics between a hydride and a dihydrogen ligand in the [FeH(H2)(PH3)4]+ model complex. A global three-dimensional (3D) potential energy surface (PES) was constructed by fitting to and interpolating from a discrete set of grid points computed using density functional theory; exact quantum dynamical calculations were then carried out on the 3D PES using discrete variable representation basis sets. Energy levels and their quantum tunneling splittings were computed up to 3000 cm-1 above the ground state. Within that energy range, all three fundamentals have been identified using wave function plots, as well as the first three overtones of the exchange (reaction coordinate) motion and several of its combination bands. From the tunneling splittings, the Boltzmann-averaged tunneling rates were computed. The Arrhenius plot of the total exchange rate shows a clear transition around 150 K, below which the activation energy is essentially zero and above which it is less than half of the electronic structure barrier. This indicates that exchange rates are governed by quantum tunneling throughout the relevant temperature range with the low-temperature regime dominated by a single quantum (ground) state. This work is the first-ever fully quantum dynamical study to investigate the hydrogen exchange dynamics between hydride and dihydrogen ligands coordinated to a transition-metal complex.

Abstract
Progress in the hydrogen fuel field requires a clear understanding and characterization of how materials of interest interact with hydrogen. Due to the inherently quantum mechanical nature of hydrogen nuclei, any theoretical studies of these systems must be treated quantum dynamically. One class of material that has been examined in this context are dihydrogen complexes. Since their discovery by Kubas in 1984, many such complexes have been studied both experimentally and theoretically. This particular study examines the rotational dynamics of the dihydrogen ligand in the Fe(H)2(H2)(PEtPh2)3 complex, allowing for full motion in both the rotational degrees of freedom and treating the quantum dynamics (QD) explicitly. A "gas-phase" global potential energy surface is first constructed using density functional theory with the Becke, 3-parameter, Lee-Yang-Parr functional; this is followed by an exact QD calculation of the corresponding rotation/libration states. The results provide insight into the dynamical correlation of the two rotation angles as well as a comprehensive analysis of both ground- and excited-state librational tunneling splittings. The latter was computed to be 6.914 cm-1-in excellent agreement with the experimental value of 6.4 cm-1. This work represents the first full-dimensional ab initio exact QD calculation ever performed for dihydrogen ligand rotation in a coordination complex.

Abstract
Experimental adsorption isotherms of four adsorbates (N2, Ar, C6H6, and CCl4) as well as adsorption enthalpy (C6H6 and CCl4) measured on two strictly microporous carbons are used to evaluate the porosity of adsorbents (i.e., pore size distributions (PSDs) and average pore diameter ( Lav )). The influence of the diameter of adsorbates ( dA) as well as of the temperature ( T ) is analyzed in order to explain the differences or similarities between the above-mentioned quantities for all systems. Proposed previously, the general relationships between the parameters of the Dubinin-Astakhov (DA) isotherm equation (the characteristic energy of adsorption ( E0 ) and the exponent of this equation ( n )) and the average slit-width of carbon micropores are investigated. Moreover, the thermodynamic verification of the Horvath-Kawazoe (HK) theory and the ND model is presented based on data of the adsorption and enthalpy of adsorption of benzene and carbon tetrachloride on two carbons. Finally, the pore diameters calculated from calorimetry data using the Everett and Powl method and those calculated applying the recently developed equations are compared. In our opinion the change of apparent PSD should be monitored by performing a series of isotherm measurements from high (equal and higher than room temperature) to low temperatures (ca. 77.5 K) as was presented in the current study. Moreover, the analysis of the experimental data leads to the conclusion that the entropy of C6H6 and CCl4 can approach to the values characteristic of quasi-solid (a partially ordered structure). Therefore, this behavior of the adsorbate should be taken into consideration in the theoretical assumptions of model and its thermodynamic verification.

Abstract
Grand canonical and canonical ensemble Monte Carlo simulation methods are used to study the structure and phase behavior of Lennard-Jones fluids confined between the parallel (100) planes of the face centered cubic crystal. Ultra thin slit pores of the width allowing for the formation of only two adsorbate layers are considered. It is demonstrated that the structure of adsorbed phases is very sensitive to the wall-wall separation and to the strength of the fluid-wall potential. It is also shown that the structure of low temperature (solid) phases strongly depends on the fluid density. In particular, when the surface field is sufficiently strong, then the high density phases may exhibit a domain wall structure, quite the same as found in monolayer films adsorbed at a single substrate wall. On the other hand, the weakening of the surface potential leads to the regime in which only the hexagonally ordered bilayer structure is stable. The phase diagrams for a series of systems are estimated. It is shown that, depending on the pore width and the temperature, the condensation leads to the formation of the commensurate or incommensurate phases. The incommensurate phases may have the domain-wall or the hexagonal structure depending on the pore width and the strength of the fluid-wall potential.

Abstract
Liquid-phase NMR studies on hindered rotation of methyl group in a 9-methyltriptycene derivative are reported where the standard, classical jump model of the methyl dynamics proves inadequate. On the other hand, accurate reproduction of the observed NMR line shape effects is afforded by the use of a recent quantum mechanical model in which the relevant methyl dynamics are described in terms of two quantum rate (coherence-damping) processes, characterized by two different rate constants. For ambient temperatures, such a direct evidence of the quantum nature of a rate process generally believed to be classical seems to have no precedence in the literature.

Abstract
The Fourier approach and theories of space groups and color symmetries are used to systematically generate and compare bicontinuous cubic structures in the framework of a Ginzburg-Landau model for ternary amphiphilic systems. Both single and double structures are investigated; they correspond to systems with one or two monolayers in a unit cell, respectively. We show how and why single structures can be made to approach triply periodic minimal surfaces very closely, and give improved nodal approximations for G, D, I-WP, and P surfaces. We demonstrate that the relative stability of the single structures can be calculated from the geometrical properties of their interfaces only. The single gyroid G turns out to be the most stable bicontinuous cubic phase since it has the smallest porosity. The representations are used to calculate distributions of the Gaussian curvature and 2H-nuclear-magnetic-resonance band shapes for C(P), C(D), S, C(Y), and F-RD surfaces.

Abstract
The rotational spectrum of p-anisaldehyde in a supersonic expansion has been investigated in the frequency range 60-78 GHz. Transitions up to J = 57 measured for the anti and syn conformers have been used to determine complete sets of fourth-order centrifugal distortion constants. Methyl group internal rotation splittings have also been observed for some of the lines and have yielded the respective barriers for both conformers. A vibrational satellite observed for each of the two conformers has been assigned to the respective first excited methoxy torsional state. The jet conditions, in particular the stagnation pressure of the carrier gas, can be adjusted to control the degree of cooling achieved in the expansion. This possibility has been exploited in the present work to enhance the intensities of the observed vibrational satellites. Applying a two-dimensional flexible model to the methoxyl and aldehydic groups torsions, the potential energy and structural deformation parameters transferred from anisole and benzaldehyde have been found to be suitable to describe these motions in p-anisaldehyde. Mixing of anti and syn conformations has been found to be insignificant within the first 82 calculated torsional eigenstates and therefore less likely to explain the intermediate bands observed in the low-resolution microwave spectrum than the internal vibrational relaxation suggested by R. K. Bohn, M. S. Farag, C. M. Ott, J. Radhakrishnan, S. A. Sorenson, and N. S. True (1992, J. Mol. Struct. 268, 107-121). A qualitative discussion of relaxation among the torsional states and its effect on the rotational spectrum is given. Copyright 1997 Academic Press. Copyright 1997Academic Press
