Abstract

The semirigid vibrating rotor target (SVRT) model for the polyatomic reaction has been applied to the reaction of F+CH4→HF+CH3. The time-dependent wave packet approach has also been used in the calculation. In the current study, reaction probability, cross-section, and rate constant are calculated for the title reaction on the modified J1 (MJ1) potential energy surface (PES). Numerical calculation shows oscillatory structures in the energy dependence of the calculated reaction probability. Those structures are generally associated with broad dynamical resonance. They are almost washed-out in the energy dependence of integral cross-sections due to summation over partial waves. The calculated rate constant is in good agreement with experimental measurement.
