Comparison of classical reaction paths and tunneling paths studied with the semiclassical instanton theory
Jan Meisner, Max N. Markmeyer, Matthias U. Bohner +1
Atom tunneling in the hydrogen atom transfer reaction of the 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl radical to 3,5-di-tert-butylneophyl, which has a short but strongly curved reaction path, wa…
Vibrational analysis of methyl cation - rare gas atom complexes: CH-Rg (Rg=He, Ne, Ar, Kr)
Jan Meisner, Philipp P. Hallmen, Johannes Kästner +1
The vibrational spectra of simple CH-Rg (Rg=He, Ne, Ar, Kr) complexes have been studied by vibrational configuration interaction (VCI) theory relying on multidimensional pote…
Dual-Level Approach to Instanton Theory
Jan Meisner, Johannes Kästner
Instanton theory is an established method to calculate rate constants of chemical reactions including atom tunneling. Technical and methodological improvements increased its applic…
Atom-Tunneling in Chemistry
Jan Meisner, Johannes Kästner
Quantum mechanical tunneling of atoms is increasingly found to play an important role in many chemical transformations. Experimentally, atom-tunneling can be indirectly detected by…
Revisiting the reactivity between HCO and CH on interstellar grain surfaces
J. Enrique-Romero, S. Álvarez-Barcia, F. J. Kolb +7
Formation of interstellar complex organic molecules is currently thought to be dominated by the barrierless coupling between radicals on the interstellar icy grain surfaces. Previo…
The role of atom tunneling in gas-phase reactions in planet-forming disks
Jan Meisner, Inga Kamp, Wing-Fai Thi +1
This paper investigates the impact of the increased reaction rate constant due to tunneling effects on planet-forming disks. Our aim is to quantify the astrophysical implications o…
