Abstract
Accurate full-dimensional quantum mechanical calculations are reported for the CH4+H --> CH3+H-2 reaction employing the Jordan-Gilbert potential energ y surface. Benchmark results for the thermal rate constant and the cumulati ve reaction probability are presented and compared to classical transition state theory as well as reduced dimensionality quantum scattering calculati ons. The importance of quantum effects in this system is highlighted. (C) 2 000 American Institute of Physics. [S0021-9606(00)01737-2].
