Theoretical models for reaction dynamics in polyatomic molecular systems
Conference

OSTI ID:7087767
The reaction path Hamiltonian based on the minimum energy reaction path is reviewed. Another reaction path Hamiltonian, this one based on a straight line path from reactants to products, is also introduced. It is argued that the latter model provides a better description of H-atom transfer reactions, a process for which the former one is poor. A variety of quantum and classical dynamical approaches based on these Hamiltonians are surveyed. 33 refs., 3 figs.
