Bridging the gap from surface science to heterogeneous catalysis Faraday Discussion 20 - 22 April 2026, London, United Kingdom Early Bird registration deadline: 9 March 2026 The Discussion will bring together established and early-career scientists, postgraduate students and industrial researchers from the heterogenous catalysis and surface chemistry communities to design the new catalysts needed for society’s most pressing problems ranging from energy production, air quality and transportation to environmentally sustainable industry. The Discussion will be organised into four themes: 💠 New experimental methods for observing catalysts in action 💠 Impact of artificial intelligence on heterogeneous catalysis 💠 Chemical mechanisms and system analysis in heterogeneous catalysis 💠 Rational design of dynamic and self-repairing active sites

Raytraced scene showing a ball-and-stick model of a manganese antimonide surface, resting upon a scientific journal article discussing its properties. This, in turn, sits on a wooden table-top, along with a pencil and a glass of water. The top layer of the model crystal is host to a pair of globular shapes in polished chrome, which represent quantum mechanical orbitals relating to surface-localised electronic states calculated by first-principles methods.

One from the archives: surface-localised electronic states of MnSb (manganese antimonide). Based on calculations reported by Mollet & Jenkins, Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter (2007) 19, 315214. #Orbitals #Surfaces #SurfaceScience #HalfMetals #Magnetism #ChemSky #CompChemSky #Povray

Photograph of a reasonably priced paperback textbook entitled Foundations of Surface Science, authored by Stephen J Jenkins and published by Oxford University Press. The cover is mainly white, with a bright orange and blue scanning tunnelling microscopy image of alanine molecules on a copper surface. The book rests at a jsunty angle on a black background.

Interested in the symmetry of two-dimensional periodic patterns? There's a brief introduction to the topic in my book on the Foundations of Surface Science (OUP, 2023). #SurfaceScience #ChemSky
