<"Progress in Physical Chemistry" is a collection of recent "Review Articles" published in the "Zeitschrift für Physikalische Chemie". The aim of a "Review Article" is to give a profound survey on a special topic outlining the history, development, state of the art and future research. Collecting these Reviews the Editor(s) of Zeitschrift für Physikalische Chemie intend to counteract the expanding flood of papers and thereby to give students and researchers a means to obtain fundamental knowledge on their special interests. The first volume of Progress in Physical Chemistry is mainly focussed on intermolecular interaction, also glancing at topics that are marginally touched. Contents •Martina Havenith*, Gerhard W.
