I heard this term for the first time in a no: 7 subway add with an indian lecturer teaching this subject in hunter college, and was just curious to know what it is

Chemical physics : is a subdiscipline of chemistry and physics that investigates physicochemical phenomena using techniques from atomic and molecular physics and condensed matter physics; it is the branch of physics that studies chemical processes from the point of view of physics. While at the interface of physics and chemistry, chemical physics is distinct from physical chemistry in that it focuses more on the characteristic elements and theories of physics. Meanwhile, physical chemistry studies the physical nature of chemistry. Nonetheless, the distinction between the two fields is vague, and workers often practice in each field during the course of their research.

I remember those days of math, physics and chemistry now and i always had unquenchable thirst for these trio and i used to be on cloud 9 whenever i could solve any problem that was related to IIT-JEE, Roorke or BITS Pilani...
