The detailed description of chemical reaction rates is embodied in transition state theory
(TST), now recognized as one of the great achievements of theoretical chemistry. TST …

Roaming is a recently verified unusual pathway to molecular products from unimolecular
dissociation of an energized molecule. Here we present the evidence for this pathway for …

Reaction pathways that bypass the conventional saddle-point transition state (TS) are of
considerable interest and importance. An example of such a pathway, termed “roaming,” has …

Roaming reactions were first clearly identified in photodissociation of formaldehyde 15 years
ago, and roaming dynamics are now recognized as a universal aspect of chemical reactivity …

In this review the roaming pathway in chemical reaction dynamics is described and
illustrated. After a brief review and illustration of this pathway, an update on the chemical …

The phenomenon of roaming in chemical reactions has now become both commonly
observed in experiment and extensively supported by theory and simulations. Roaming …

A novel theoretical framework for predicting the branching between roaming and bond
fission channels in molecular dissociations is described and applied to the decomposition of …

Visualising a collision between an atom or a molecule or a photodissociation (half-collision)
of a molecule on a single particle and single quantum level is like watching the collision of …

An unusual decomposition mechanism of highly vibrationally excited molecules, dubbed the
“roaming mechanism”, has recently been discovered and is now an active area of …

We present a quasiclassical trajectory study of the photodissociation of CH3CHO to
molecular and radical products, CH4+ CO and CH3+ HCO, respectively, using global ab …
