Beyond Transition State Theory: Accurate Description of Nuclear Quantum Effects on the Rate and Equilibrium Constants of Chemical Reactions Using Feynman Path Integrals
Nuclear tunneling and other nuclear quantum effects have been shown to play a significant role in molecules as large as enzymes even at physiological temperatures. I discuss how these quantum phenomena can be accounted for rigorously using Feynman path integrals in calculations of the equi...
