Descripción
Chaos is an ubiquitous concept that has important implications in several different fields, ranging from Mathematics and Physics to Biology and Economics. In this talk, we will show the importance that chaos also has in Chemistry. To begin with, we will introduce a chemical oscillatory reaction (the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction) that has a chaotic behavior. Then, we will discuss how dynamical systems theory can be applied to predict if a reaction takes place or not, and how can it be used to compute rates without the need of any numerical simulation. In particular, we will show how Langevin equation can be used to model a chemical system, and demonstrate that some geometrical objects (the invariant manifolds) act as separatrices for chemical reactivity. Finally, we will show that even isolated molecules can have chaotic motion, which also has a clear imprint on some of its quantum states (the so called "scars").
