Dr. Greer plans experimental measurements to test the                   applicability of statistical mechanical models originally developed             for magnetic phase transitions to cases of equilibrium polymerization           reactions.  In particular, she will test the predictions of the theory          for the phase equilibria, the heat capacity, the density, and the               viscosity, of sulfur and of various so-called living polymers (certain          organic molecules which show reversible polymerization).  She also              plans to study the kinetics of these polymerization processes for               comparison with computer simulations being done by other workers.                       The scientific interest in the general class of so-called living        polymer systems is widespread.  It includes analytical theory,                  computer simulations, and laboratory experiments such as Dr. Greer is           carrying out.  Her work promises to strengthen the intellectual                 linkages between modern phase transition theory and chemical kinetics           and reactivity.  It is important as an outstanding example of the               essence of the scientific enterprise:  the seeking of the most general          paradigm of the physical world.
