EQUIPMENT DEVISED AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO & USED IN THE EXPERIMENTS WHICH LED TO THE AWARD OF THE 1986 NOBEL PRIZE IN CHEMISTRY TO CANADIAN SCIENTISTS JOHN POLANYI. - Function
-
APPARATUS IN WHICH REAGENTS WERE MIXED IN ORDER TO RECORD THE INFRARED SPECTRUM RESULTING FROM THE REACTION. THE REACTION CELL SERVED AS AN INFRARED LIGHT SOURCE FOR THE DETECTION SYSTEM. - Technical
-
BY COOLING WALLS OF REACTION CHAMBER & OPERATING THE CONDITIONS AT VERY LOW PRESSURES (BETWEEN.001 &.001 TORR.) POLANYI GROUP WAS ABLE TO USE THIS EQUIPMENT TO OBTAIN RELIABLE RESULTS ON PRODUCT ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS. THE LARGE CHAMBER WAS NECESSARY TO OBTAIN SUFFICIENTLY HIGH PUMPING SPEEDS & HENCE REAGENT FLOWS. - Area Notes
