Seminar SOSE2024
- Topic Stochastic Processes and Reaction Rate Theory
- Date and time Thursday, 10:00 - 12:00
- Location Room 25/26 at Arnimallee 6 (FU Berlin) on T from 12 to 14;
- The seminar will start on 18 April.
- Content Reaction rate theory is the study of the kinetic properties of natural phenomena that can be modelled as stochastic processes and is fundamental in many disciplines ranging from physics, chemistry, biology, and economics. This seminar will review the state-of-the-art of methods used to calculate reaction rates, analysing both theoretical and practical aspects.
- The course is highly interdisciplinary and students from physics, chemistry, and mathematics are encouraged to participate.
