Abstract
We perform trajectory-based simulations of the vibrational predissociation of the ArBr2(B,ν=16···25) van der Waals triatomic complex, constrained to the T-shape geometry. To this aim, we employ a 2-fold mapping of the quantum dynamics into classical-like dynamics in an extended phase space. The effective phase space comprises two distinct sets of degrees of freedom, namely a collection of coupled harmonic oscillators and an ensemble of quantum trajectories. The time evolution of these variables represent bound and unbound motions of the quantum system, respectively. Quantum trajectories are propagated within the interacting trajectory representation. The comparison between the lifetimes of the predissociating complexes computed using the trajectory-based approach and the experimental results available for the target systems indicates that the present method is competitive with wavepacket propagation techniques. The competition between several simultaneous vibrational relaxation pathways was found to have a direct impact on the time scales of vibrational predissociation. Likewise, the analysis of the time evolution of the trajectories reveals the existence of regions in the effective phase space where transitions to vibrational states of higher energy are more likely to occur. The size and location of these regions influence the transient vibrational distributions and therefore the computed lifetimes. Furthermore, the mechanisms of energy redistribution along the dissociation coordinate are analyzed.

Abstract
In the semiclassical theory of rotational transitions, S-matrix elements are expressed as integrals over initial and final angles of probability amplitudes calculated along the classical paths joining these angles, before final passage to an initial value representation [W. H. Miller, J. Phys. Chem. A 105, 2942 (2001)]. These angles can be either natural angles fixing the orientation of the rotor or angles shifted with respect to the previous ones so as to vary only within the interaction region causing the transitions. The two approaches, however, were recently shown to lead to different predictions. While the theory in natural angles lacks precision and exhibits unphysical behavior, the theory in shifted angles is much more accurate and physically well behaved [L. Bonnet, J. Chem. Phys. 153, 174102 (2020)]. The present work is devoted to the analysis of this unexpected finding.

Abstract
Vibrational transitions, induced by collisions between rare-gas atoms and molecules, play a key role in many problems of interest in physics and chemistry. A theoretical investigation of the translation-to-vibration (T-V) energy transfer process in argon atom and sulfur dioxide molecule collisions is presented here. For such a purpose, the framework of the quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) methodology was followed over the range of translational energies 2 ≤ Etr/kcal mol-1 ≤ 100. A new realistic potential energy surface (PES) for the ArSO2 system was developed using pairwise addition for the four-body energy term within the double many-body expansion. The topological features of the obtained function are compared with a previous one reported by Hippler et al. [J. Phys. Chem. 90, 6158 (1986)]. To test the accuracy of the PES, additional coupled cluster singles and doubles method with a perturbative contribution of connected triples calculations were carried out for the global minimum configuration. From dynamical calculations, the cross sections for the T-V excitation process indicate a barrier-type mechanism due to strong repulsive interactions between SO2 molecules and the Ar atom. Corrections to zero-point energy leakage in QCT were carried out using vibrational energy quantum mechanical threshold of the complex and variations. Rate coefficients and cross sections are calculated for some vibrational transitions using pseudo-quantization approaches of the vibrational energy of products. Main attributes of the title molecular collision are discussed and compared with available information in the literature.

Abstract
We report Trajectory Surface Hopping (TSH) calculations of CH3CHO photodissociation involving three electronic states, S1, T1, and S0, with a focus on the radical products CH3 + HCO, which can be formed from both T0 and S0. We use previously reported potential energy surfaces and spin-orbit couplings for T1 and S0 and report a new potential and spin-orbit coupling for S1 here. Roughly 32 000 trajectories are performed at energies corresponding to seven photolysis wavelengths between 372 and 230 nm. Motivated by recent experiments, we examine the branching ratio of the T1 to S0 pathways as a function of photolysis energy. We also present the relative translational energy and CH3 vibrational energy distributions from these pathways at a photolysis energy of 100 kcal mol(-1), formed from both the T1 and S0 potentials. As with standard quasiclassical trajectory calculations, violation of zero-point energy for products also occurs in TSH calculations. This is shown to be a serious issue for this branching ratio and one of several methods considered to deal with this issue is shown to give satisfactory results.

Abstract
We report quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) calculations of the correlated product distributions and branching ratios of the reactions F+CHD(3)(v(1)=0,1)-->HF(v)+CD(3)(v) and DF(v)+CHD(2)(v) using a recently published ab initio-based full-dimensional global potential energy surface [G. Czako et al., J. Chem. Phys. 130, 084301 (2009)]. Harmonic normal mode analysis is done for the methyl products to determine the classical actions of each normal mode and then standard histogram binning and Gaussian binning (GB) methods are employed to obtain quantum state-resolved probabilities of the products. QCT calculations have been performed for both the vibrationally ground state and the CH stretching excited F+CHD(3)(v(1)=0,1) reactions at eight different collision energies in the 0.5-7.0 kcal/mol range. HF and DF vibrationally state-resolved rotational and angular distributions, CD(3) and CHD(2) mode-specific vibrational distributions, and correlated vibrationally state-specific distributions for the product pairs have been obtained and the correlated results were compared to the experiment. We find that the use of GB can be advantageous especially in the threshold regions. The CH stretching excitation in the reactant does not change the CD(3) vibrational distributions significantly, whereas the HF molecules become vibrationally and rotationally hotter. On the other hand in the case of the DF+CHD(2) channel the initially excited CH stretch appears mainly "intact" in the CHD(2) product and the DF distributions are virtually the same as formed from the ground state CHD(3) reaction. The computed results qualitatively agree with recent crossed molecular beam experiment [W. Zhang et al., Science 325, 303 (2009)] that (a) CHD(2)(v(1)=1) is the most populated product state of the F+CHD(3)(v(1)=1) reaction and this reaction produces much less CHD(2)(v=0) compared to the reaction F+CHD(3)(v=0); (b) the cross section ratio of CHD(2)(v(1)=1):CHD(2)(v=0) formed from the reactions F+CHD(3)(v(1)=1):F+CHD(3)(v=0) is less than 1 and shows little collision energy dependency; (c) the reactant CH stretch excitation increases the DF:HF ratio at low collision energies; (d) the correlated vibrational and angular distributions for DF(v)+CHD(2)(v(1)=0,1) from the ground state and stretch-excited reactions, respectively, are almost identical.
