Reaction-volume approach to N-particle reactions: New optimization scheme for defining the reaction volume
Vibrational energy transfer in molecular oxygen collisions
Rate coefficients for the relaxation of vibrational excited oxygen molecules, including both vibration-to-vibration (V-V) and vibration-to-translation (V-T) energy exchange, have been calculated using a semiclassical method and a new potential energy surface for a large interval of initial vibrational quantum numbers (1 ≤ v ≤29) in the temperature range between 50 and 1000 K.
Quantum dressed classical mechanics: application to the photo-absorption of pyrazine
A newly formulated theory for treating time-dependent molecular quantum dynamics has been used to calculate the photo-absorption spectrum of pyrazine. Comparison with quantum mechanical results shows an excellent agreement during the whole propagation, proving that the present approach, when used in a discrete variable representation scheme, converges to exact quantum results if enough grid points are used. The addition of an increasing number of bath modes to the basic four mode model is also investigated and the performance of the method discussed
Quantum dressed classical mechanics: application to chemical reactions
Reaction dynamics of a four atom system is investigated using a time-dependent Gauss-Hermite discrete variable representation (TDGH-DVR) method. The method is applied to the description of vibrational degrees of freedom in the calculation of initially state selected cross-sections for the reaction H-2 + CN --> HCN + H, while translational and rotational motions are treated classically
