Brownian motion in a field of force and the diffusion model of chemical reactions

TL;DR: In this article, a particle which is caught in a potential hole and which, through the shuttling action of Brownian motion, can escape over a potential barrier yields a suitable model for elucidating the applicability of the transition state method for calculating the rate of chemical reactions.

Reaction-rate theory: fifty years after Kramers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report, extend, and interpret much of our current understanding relating to theories of noise-activated escape, for which many of the notable contributions are originating from the communities both of physics and of physical chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current status of transition-state theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of the current status of transition-state theory and its generalizations, including recent improvements in available methodology for calculations on complex systems, including the interface with electronic structure theory, progress in the theory and application of transitionstate theory to condensed-phase reactions, and insight into the relation of transition state theory to accurate quantum dynamics.

Variational Transition State Theory

TL;DR: In this article, a more reliable transition state theory that has many of the advantages of conventional TST can also be formulated, and it can be applied to practical problems with an effort that is much closer to that required for conventional transition-state theory than to the effort required for quantal dynamics calculations.
