  • The book that Professor Robert Clegg brought to the class (some of the material he taught can be found there) was:


N. Mataga and T. Kubota (1970)"Molecular Interactions and Electronic Spectra" , Marcel Dkker, Inc., N.Y. . It is in the Physics Library of UIUC (541.383 M41m)

  • Please look at the Handouts given by Professor Robert Clegg; if you have not received them, please request another student or Dr. Clegg to give you a copy.
  • In the same way, if you need any material, such as black & white copies of overheads used by Govindjee in his March 25 and April 1 lectures, please request him to make copies for you.
