Yuan Tseh Lee was instrumental in the development and construction of an apparatus that utilized crossed molecular beams, presenting a break-through technique that allowed for the understanding of the dynamics of elementary chemical reactions. This was done by following the trajectories of reactants and reaction products in single collision events, allowing the visualization of the dynamics of how chemical reactions take place. This article also highlights Prof. Lee’s belief in the severity of the consequences of global warming and his concerns relating to the need to substantially reduce carbon emissions.
