Abstract
A quantal transition state bound on the rate of chemical reactions in any dimension is derived. The magnitude of the bound is dependent on the location of a dividing surface and thus is variational. Analysis of the quality of the bound in one and two dimensions shows that the quality of the bound improves with increasing dimensionality of the problem. The new theory requires only the computation of diagonal density matrix elements and so should prove to be computationally useful.
