Theoretical approaches for calculating rate constants of chemical reactionseither the microcanonical rate for a given total energy k(E) or the canonical rate for a given temperature k(T)are described that are both “direct”, i.e., bypass the necessity of having to solve the complete state-to-state quantum reactive scattering problem, yet also “correct”, i.e., in principle exact (given a potential energy surface, assuming nonrelativistic quantum mechanics, etc.) Applications to a variety of reactions are presented to illustrate the methodology for various dynamical situations, e.g., transition-state-theory-like dynamics where the system moves directly through the interaction (transition-state) region and reactions that form long-lived collision complexes. It is also shown how this rigorous quantum theory can be combined with the Lindemann mechanism for describing the effects of collisions with a bath gas, so as to be able to treat recombination reactions and other effects of pressure. Finally, several ways ...
