Excited state dynamics and spin-orbit interactions are possible, but difficult. Gas/Surface Reactions (O + polymer surface): Direct dynamics classical trajectories (thermal ensemble) with QM/MM potential surfaces. QM uses MSINDO, QM/MM partitioning done with link atoms.

QCT trajectories are initiated and propagated on one of the adiabatic potential surfaces (UB3LYP/6-31G**) Step 2.

Seeds are typically radicals, and these can be added or subtracted as system evolves. Forces are discontinuously switched when atoms move into/out of QM regions. Switching only occurs where atoms are close to equilibrium. Size of QM sphere can be increased to insure convergence V Total = V MM (all) + V QM (QM) V MM (QM) V QM = MSINDO V MM =TINKER (OPLS)

QM/MM simulations can be extended to gas/liquid collisions. Hyperthermal dynamics can be done with cheap electronic structure methods.
