National symposia sponsored by PHYS in the area of energy include "The Physical Chemistry of Photon to Fuel Conversion" (Fall 2009) and the upcoming "Optical Science and Emerging Energy Technologies" at the Spring 2010 National Meeting in San Francisco. *Spring 2010 National Meeting Submission Deadline is October 19th* Details on submitting an abstract for this and other PHYS-sponsored programming at the Spring 2010 National Meeting may be found on the Division webpage <http://phys-acs.org>. The deadline for submission is Oct. 19, 2009. Please also note the special programs for postdocs and undergraduates sponsored by PHYS. *Award in Theoretical Chemistry* Finally, the Division is pleased to announce that the 2009 Physical Chemistry Division Award in Theoretical Chemistry was presented to Peter Rossky at the TSTC in Telluride, CO, in July. Nominations are open for the 2010 award and will be accepted until Nov. 1, 2009. *[image: Langmuir]* <http://listmanager1.acs.org/t/46529/4060649/1330/0/> *BACK TO TOP <#1241039826843832_top>* *New Special Issue on Molecular and Polymer Gels: Materials with Self-Assembled Fibrillar Networks* *"This Special Issue of Langmuir is, in some senses, an acknowledgment of the rapid growth that has occurred in the interest in and the understanding of gels with fibrillar networks during the last few decades…* *"…In other respects, this issue signals a challenge to the scientific community: our increased knowledge has uncovered a myriad of heretofore unrecognized questions that must be answered before we can truly understand 'how' and 'why' gels with fibrillar networks form…"* — From the Editorial by Senior Editor Richard G. Weiss, Georgetown University, in Volume 25, Issue 15, of *Langmuir*. *Langmuiris Celebrating its 25th Anniversary in 2009 * To celebrate, the journal will publish three Special Issues in 2009: the first on Neutron Reflectivity, the second on Molecular and Polymer Gels: Materials with Self-Assembled Fibrillar Networks, and the third, the final issue of 2009, on developments during the last 25 years in five topics of historical and ongoing importance to *Langmuir*. The first two Special Issues are online now, along with a special anniversary website, at the * Langmuir* website <http://listmanager1.acs.org/t/46529/4060649/3716/0/>. *[image: JCTC: Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation]*<http://listmanager1.acs.org/t/46529/4060649/878/0/> *BACK TO TOP <#1241039826843832_top>* *Most-Read Articles* Enjoy free access <http://listmanager1.acs.org/t/46529/4060649/3717/0/> for a limited time to the following selected articles from the *Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation*: *Comprehensive Energy Analysis for Various Types of π-Interaction*<http://listmanager1.acs.org/t/46529/4060649/3718/0/> N.
