Reaction rates and the noisy saddle-node bifurcation: Renormalization group for barrier crossing
Barrier crossing calculations in chemical reaction-rate theory typically assume that the barrier is large compared to the temperature. When the barrier vanishes, however, there is a qualitative change in behavior. Instead of crossing a barrier, particles slide down a sloping potential. We formulate...
