Importance sampling and theory of nonequilibrium solvation dynamics in water
We have devised a novel importance sampling method for nonequilibrium processes. Like transition path sampling, the method employs a Monte Carlo procedure to confine or bias the search through trajectory space. In this way, molecular dynamics trajectories consistent with the nonequilibrium dynamics of interest are generated efficiently. Using results of this sampling, we demonstrate that statis...
متن کاملSolvation Effects on Kinetics of Methylene Chloride Reactions in Sub- and Supercritical Water: Theory, Experiment, and Ab Initio Calculations
The nature of the CH 2 Cl 2 neutral/acidic hydrolysis reaction from ambient to supercritical conditions (25 to 600°C at 246 bar) is explored. Of primary interest is the effect of the changing dielectric behavior of the water solvent over this temperature range on this reaction. Experiments reveal that significant CH 2 Cl 2 hydrolysis occurs under subcritical temperatures, while relatively littl...
متن کاملEffects of hydrogen-bond environment on single particle and pair dynamics in liquid water
We have performed molecular dynamics simulations of liquid water at 298 and 258 K to investigate the effects of hydrogen-bond environment on various single-particle and pair dynamical properties of water molecules at ambient and supercooled conditions. The water molecules are modelled by the extended simple point charge (SPC/E) model. We first calculate the distribution of hydrogen-bond environ...
متن کاملRibosomal Crystallography: Dynamics, Flexibility and Peptide Bond Formation
High-resolution crystal structures of functionally active ribosomal particles provide unique tools for understanding key questions concerning ribosomal function, mobility, dynamics, and involvement in cellular regulation. Structure analysis of complexes of ribosomal particles with substrate analogs and universal drugs indicated that ribosomes provide the structural frame for precise positioning...
متن کاملEssay Valence Bond Theory for Chemical Dynamics
This essay provides a perspective on several issues in valence bond theory: the physical significance of semilocal bonding orbitals, the capability of valence bond concepts to explain systems with multireferences character, the use of valence bond theory to provide analytical representations of potential energy surfaces for chemical dynamics by the method of semiempirical valence bond potential...
