Foreword The Advances in Chemistry Series was founded in 1949 by the American Chem ical Society as an outlet for symposia and collections of data in special areas of topical interest that could not be accommodated in the Society's journals. It provides a medium for symposia that would otherwise be fragmented because their papers would be distributed among several journals or not published at all. Papers are reviewed critically according to A C S editorial standards and receive the careful attention and processing characteristics of A C S publications. Volumes in the Advances in Chemistry Series maintain the integrity of the symposia on which they are based; however, verbatim reproductions of previ ously published papers are not accepted. Papers may include reports of research as well as reviews, because symposia may embrace both types of presentation.

About the Editors is a Chemist in the Chemis try Department of Brookhaven National Labo ratory (BNL), Upton, New York. He received his Ph.D. degree in inorganic chemistry from Stanford University under Professor Henry Taube, and his S.B. in chemistry from the Mas sachusetts Institute of Technology. He served as project manager for the construction of the new pulse radiolysis facility at B N L , which is based on a 10 M e V radio-frequency photocathode electron gun, the first of its kind in the world to be dedicated to pulse radiolysis. His research interests include electron transfer (particularly over long distances using oligopeptides and proteins as structural mo tifs), radiation chemistry, inorganic reaction mechanisms, the reactivity of energetic inorganic species produced by radiation, the effects of high pressure on chemical reactivity, reactions in supercritical solvents, and the development of new accelerators and new detection tech niques for pulse radiolysis. He co-organized an international symposium for the American Chemical Society Division of Inorganic Chemistry at the 209th National Meeting in Ana heim, California, in 1995.

JAMES F . WISHART
G . N O C E R A received his early education at Rutgers University where he obtained a B.S. degree in 1979. He subsequently moved to Pasadena, Cali fornia where he began research on the electron trans fer reactions of biological and inorganic systems with Professor Harry Gray at the California Institute, of Technology. After earning his Ph.D. degree in 1984, he went to East Lansing, Michigan to accept a faculty appointment at Michigan State University (Assistant Professor 1983-1988; Associate Professor 19881990; and Professor 1990-1997). In mid-summer 1997, he joined the faculty of the Massachusetts In stitute of Technology as a Professor of Chemistry. Nocera is a physical-inorganic chemist with research spanning the disci plines of chemistry, engineering, and biochemistry. He studies the basic mechaDANIEL

nism of energy conversion in biology and chemistry. His research interests include the discovery of new excited state redox mechanisms of transition metal complexes, magnetic and optical properties of layered materials, the role of protons in mediating electron transfer, and the design of optical sensing schemes that rely on a triggered luminescent response from a supramolecular active site. Recently he developed a new method to measure vorticity in highly three-dimensional turbulent flows. The optical diagnostic technique has found application in solving a variety of fluid physics and engineering problems. Nocera has published more than 100 research papers and he has presented more than 150 invited talks. He has received Presidential Young Investigator, Alfred P. Sloan Fellow, Sigma X i Junior Research, and Dreyfus Awards.
