Cumulative Reaction Probability In Terms Of Reactant-Product Wave Packet Correlation Functions, Sophya Garashchuk, David J. Tannor

Faculty Publications

Presents expressions for the cumulative reaction probability (N(E)), cast in terms of time-correlation functions of reactant and product wave packets. Beginning of the derivation with a standard trace expression for the cumulative reaction probability; Expression for N(E) obtained in terms of the correlation matrices of incoming and outgoing wave packets.
