From hot atom chemistry to epithermal chemistry [Elektronische Daten] [K. Roessler] The rise and fall of hot atom chemistry (HAC) over the years from 1934 to 2004 is reviewed. Several applications are discussed, in particular to astrophysics and the interaction of energetic ions and atoms in space. Epithermal chemistry (ETC) is proposed to substitute the old name, since it better fits the energy range as well as the non-thermal and non-equilibrium character of the reactions. ETC also avoids the strong connexion of HAC to nuclear chemistry and stands for the opening of the field to physical chemistry and astrophysics. © 2004 Oldenbourg Wissenschaftsverlag GmbH Laboratory techniques, experiments nationallicence Analytical chemistry nationallicence Inorganic chemistry nationallicence Radiochimica Acta/International journal for chemical aspects of nuclear science and technology Oldenbourg Wissenschaftsverlag GmbH 92/4-6/2004(2004-04-01), 193-201 0033-8230 92:4-6/2004<193 2004 92 ract https://doi.org/10.1524/ract.92.4.193.35582 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1524/ract.92.4.193.35582 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Roessler K.
