Two different definitions of entropy, S = k ln W, in the microcanonical ensemble have been competing for over 100 years. The Boltzmann/Planck definition is that W is the number of states accessible to the system at its energy E (also called the surfa

Whether quantum state transitions occur by instantaneous jumps (a la Bohr) or deterministic dynamics (Schrödinger's preference) has been intensely debated. Recent experimental measurements of shelved electrons have reignited the debate. We examine a

Dunham generated the expansion for energy levels of a rotating, vibrating diatomic molecule from an expansion of the potential about the equilibrium position. For partition functions, however, the energy levels are needed all the way to dissociation.
An improved model to calculate equilibrium constants for formation of peroxy radical–water complexes

Recent experimental results show that the kinetics of some radical–radical reactions important for atmospheric pollution formation are faster when a radical–molecule complex forms as one step in the reaction mechanism. Calculated radical–molecu

Peroxy radicals can complex with water vapor. These complexes affect tropospheric chemistry. In this study, β-HEP (hydroxyethyl peroxy radical) serves as a model system for investigating the effect of water vapor on the kinetics and product branchin

The Boltzmann distribution, which accurately describes the exponential energy dependence of the canonical ensemble, only describes the distribution of one-particle energies for a microcanonical system in the large system limit. We present two distrib

Doppler profiles are calculated for initial velocity distributions after charge transfer collisions. Such profiles are applied to emissions from excited Fe + following Ar + -Fe collisions, assuming an energy-independent cross section. It is shown tha
