4 Potentials Using Permutational Invariance As molecular systems get larger find atom degeneracy, e.g., H + (H2O)2, H+CH4,CH5 +. The PES should be invariant wrt to all permutations of like atoms so ideally the fit should be as well. Exploit this in the fitting basis. Far fewer configurations than the 10 3N-6 are needed Data can be scattered Fits are more accurate (nature knows about symmetry) Fits accurately predict stationary points

5 Monomial Symmetrization C(1)C(2)H(3)H(4) S is an operator that generates a sum of monomials that is invariant wrt to the 2!2! = 4 permutations

15 A Short Selective History of NO3 Dynamics 1992 Laser Induced Fluorescence DetecZon of O 2 Vib States - Poor Franck- Condon factors to lower vibrazonal states The data therefore yield a linear surprisal plot which can, with caution, be used to estimate populations in those vibrational levels below v= 6.

19 2013 The PESs are permutationally invariant fits to roughly electronic energies (MS- CAS(17e,13o)PT2/aug-cc-pVTZ) with CCSD(T)/aVTZ dissociation energies. Permutationally invariant polynomials up to total order seven were used, for a total of 196 coefficients, for the D0 and D1 PESs, respectively. A total of about trajectories were run from D 0-GM, and roughly go to O2+NO products (rest dissociated to O+NO2 but with less than ZPE in NO2). Roughly trajectories from D 1-GM and ~1300 of them result in O2+NO. Roughly trajectories were run from the saddle points of D0 and D1, and half of them dissociated into O2+NO channel. All O 2+NO products come from roaming pathways on D0 and D1.

22 O2 Vibrational Distributions on D0 in jno Ranges Exp (North)

23 NO Vibrational Distribution From D0 This agrees with experiment (Smith, Wittig, North, Suits...)

24 Issues and Further Research While QCT calculations on D0 and D1 do capture the ro-vibrational O2 (and NO) distributions via roaming pathways on these global ab initio surfaces - not coupled, so electronic branching not calculated Spectroscopic studies from experiment and theory indicate that D2 is strongly coupled to D0. Morokuma and co-workers have located imporant minimum energy conical intersections of relevance to roaming and possibly to spectroscopy. Quantum calculations of this dissociation would be important. We can do these in the wells
