Transition State Theory
Abstract
1. significant progress with the variational formulation of classical TST, in which the objects of interest are transition 2. the study of quantum analogues of these generalized transition states, which has led to a practical and reliable rate theory for atom-diatom reactions; 3. the development of a quantum TST that avoids the separability ap proximation of conventional TST; 4. the use of the TST line of no return idea as an aid in the calculation of reaction rates from individual initial states; 5. the invention of an interpolating theory to connect the TST rate ex pressions for direct and complex reactions; 6. the use of variational TST to calculate capture cross sections in ion molecule reactions; 7. the resolution of a few questions concerning transition state symmetry.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
