Deformation of Physical and Chemical Properties of Solids Caused by the Existence of a Solid Surface

Deformations of Mathematical Structures II

Abstract

Based on quantum chemistry we develop analytic expressions describing different particle properties in dependence on the particle size, being valid in the whole region from atom to solid. Analogous formulas of surprisingly similar form appear also in classic physics. To elucidate that unexpected validity both in the microscopic and the macroscopic range we describe the common background in both fields.
