Klappentext zu „New Perspectives on Mineral Nucleation and Growth “
In the last decade, numerous studies have demonstrated the existence of alternative pathways to nucleation and crystallisation that oppose the classical view. Such proposed scenarios include multistage reactions proceeding via various precursor species and/or intermediate phases. The aim of this book is to review and discuss these recent advances in our understanding of the early stages of mineralisation through a series of contributions that address both experimental and theoretical studies about the formation and nature of initial precursor species (e.g., prenucleation clusters, dense liquid phases, amorphous nanoparticles, etc.) as well as their transformations leading to the stable mineral phase. Several chapters are devoted to cutting-edge analytical techniques used for investigating the above processes in situ, in real time and at conditions relevant to both natural and industrial processes. At the end of the book, the editors summarize the key questions that still need to be addressed in order to establish a complete picture of the nucleation and growth processes involved during the formation of minerals

Autoren-Porträt
Dr. Alexander Van Driessche is connected to the University of Granada and is an expert in the field of Chemical Kinetics, Chemical Thermodynamics and Materials Chemistry.
Prof Liane G Benning is Professor of Experimental Biogeochemistry and connected to the School of Earth and Environment at Leeds University. Her research addresses geochemical reaction mechanisms at low to hydrothermal temperatures in inorganic and biologic systems.
Field-work in the last few years included geothermal extreme environments in Iceland and New Zealand and cryogenic extreme environments (cold deserts) in the European Arctic (Svalbard, Greenland, Iceland).
