Abstract
- Cosmic cat.: Tunneling effects in the reaction between hydrogen atoms and benzene have been studied with a new direct dynamics implementation of harmonic quantum transition‐state theory. In certain regions of interstellar space, tunneling could facilitate H chemisorption on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, thereby catalyzing HD and H2formation.
