Published in 2022 at "Journal of Computational Chemistry"

DOI: 10.1002/jcc.26821

Abstract: It is much more difficult to find on the potential energy surface (PES) a transition state (TS) than a local minimum (LM). We propose a new methodology which makes this task much easier. Applying external… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Catalysis"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jcat.2020.06.013

Abstract: Abstract The net rate of a composite reaction is the difference between the forward and reverse reaction rates, which are kinetically distinct despite sharing elementary reaction steps and therefore have different rate-controlling transition states and… read more here.
