We report benchmark time-dependent quantum calculation ofstate-to-state reaction probabilities for the title reaction in fulldimensions (6D) using the widely used Schatz-Elgersma potential energysurface (PES). The time-dependent wave function is propagated using thediatom-diatom Jacobi coordinates and the energy-specific state-to-statereaction probabilities are obtained by using the correlation functionmethod. All results reported here are for reaction resulting from theground state of H{sub 2} + OH to various product states H + H{sub 2}Ofor total angular momentum J = 0. The present calculation shows thatalthough the total reaction probability is a smooth function of energy,the final state-specific reaction probabilities show oscillatorystructures as a function of collision energy for the title reaction. 19refs., 4 figs.
