Are there specific examples where Feynman's theories have been applied to Catalysis?
While Feynman did not work directly on catalysis, his theories have been applied in various ways:
- Transition State Theory: Understanding the transition state of a catalytic reaction involves quantum mechanical principles that Feynman helped to develop. - Surface Science: Feynman's work on quantum mechanics has been applied to surface science, which is crucial for heterogeneous catalysis. - Computational Catalysis: Feynman's principles are used in computational models to simulate catalytic processes and predict the behavior of new catalysts.
