TL;DR: The “Activation‐strain TS interaction” (ATS) model of chemical reactivity is reviewed as a conceptual framework for understanding how activation barriers of various types of reaction mechanisms arise and how they may be controlled, for example, in organic chemistry or homogeneous catalysis.

A fast and robust algorithm for Bader decomposition of charge density
TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm for decomposition of electronic charge density into atomic contributions is presented. But instead of explicitly finding and representing the dividing surfaces, which is a challenging task, the algorithm assigns each point on a regular (x,y,z) grid to one of the regions by following a steepest ascent path on the grid.

Revealing noncovalent interactions.
Erin R. Johnson,Shahar Keinan,Paula Mori-Sánchez,Julia Contreras-García,Aron J. Cohen,Weitao Yang +5 more
TL;DR: This work develops an approach to detect noncovalent interactions in real space, based on the electron density and its derivatives, which provides a rich representation of van der Waals interactions, hydrogen bonds, and steric repulsion in small molecules, molecular complexes, and solids.
