Beschreibung:
<jats:p>The work on molten salts and isotope separation performed over the years at Université Pierre et Marie Curie and at Collège de France is critically reviewed. This research, closely related to A. Klemm’s pioneering contributions, leads among other things to the discovery of the effect now called the ‘Chemla effect’, after the late Professor Marius Chemla. These studies of ionic motions in melts, and liquids in general, have greatly benefitted from recent advances in molecular simulations. Some recent results of such simulations - molecular dynamics (MD) and Brownian dynamics (BD) - as well as of related theoretical work are discussed.</jats:p>
