A new time‐dependent approach to the cumulative reaction probability, N(E), has been developed based on the famous formulation given by Miller and co‐workers [J. Chem. Phys. 79, 4889 (1983)], N(E)=[(2π)2/2] tr[δ(E−H)Fδ(E−H)F]. Taking advantage of the fact that the flux operator has only two nonzero eigenvalues, we evaluate the trace efficiently in a direct product basis of the first flux operator eigenstates and the Hamiltonian eigenstates on the dividing surface (internal states). Because the microcanonical density operator, δ(E−H), will eliminate contributions to N(E) from an internal state with the energy much higher than the total energy E, we can minimize the number of internal states required by choosing a dividing surface with the lowest density of internal states. If the dividing surface is located in an asymptotic region, one just needs to include all the open channels, i.e., with internal energy lower than the total energy. Utilizing the Fourier transform for δ(E−H), we can obtain the informatio...
