Introduction

Faraday Discussion 141 was organised by the RSC Faraday Division.

The conference was attended by 137 delegates from 21 countries around the world.

 

Aims

Faraday Discussion 141 was organised by the Faraday Division with the aim of achieving a unification views towards the goal of understanding the microscopic structure and behaviour of condensed phases of water at interfaces and progressing into the bulk.

The meeting aimed to bring together experimental and theoretical scientists from diverse disciplines that traditionally do not interact; the gas phase clusters community, the surface science community and the condensed (liquid) phase community.
