Gary M. Hieftje
Gary M. Hieftje is an analytical chemist, Distinguished Professor, and the Robert & Marjorie Mann Chair of Chemistry at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. Gary M. Hieftje received his A.B. degree at Hope College in Holland, Michigan in 1964, and his PhD from University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign in 1969. In 1969, he started his career in teaching and research at Indiana University. Hieftje was named a Distinguished Professor in 1985, and entered emeritus status in 2018. As of 2018, Dr. Hieftje has been involved in over 600 publications. Research in the Hieftje Group mainly focuses on studying and improving the mechanisms and methods of atomic emission and Atomic absorption spectroscopy, absorption, fluorescence, and mass spectrometry. He also works to develop new methods of analysis for atoms, molecules, and biomolecules. His group even developed an online computer program to control their experiments. Some areas of interest to his research are: finding new applicat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Chemistry
Chemistry is the science, scientific study of the properties and behavior of matter. It is a natural science that covers the Chemical element, elements that make up matter to the chemical compound, compounds made of atoms, molecules and ions: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during a Chemical reaction, reaction with other Chemical substance, substances. Chemistry also addresses the nature of chemical bonds in chemical compounds. In the scope of its subject, chemistry occupies an intermediate position between physics and biology. It is sometimes called the central science because it provides a foundation for understanding both Basic research, basic and Applied science, applied scientific disciplines at a fundamental level. For example, chemistry explains aspects of plant growth (botany), the formation of igneous rocks (geology), how atmospheric ozone is formed and how environmental pollutants are degraded (ecology), the properties ...
