About the Data Compilations

Compilation of data has emphasized the collection and review of reaction rate and associated property data for transient radicals, radical ions, and excited states in solution. These data largely result from the techniques of pulse radiolysis and flash photolysis and related methods which have produced a large body of information on short-lived transients.
