โœฆ Synopsis

An algorithm is described for determining reaction paths between two known structures with many degrees of freedom. The method uses first-derivative techniques to optimize the entire path between the two end forms subject to certain constraints. The stability and convergence properties of the method are illustrated by applications to structural transitions in two test systems (cyclohexane and dialanine) and to a conformational change involving all degrees of freedom in the protein, myoglobin, with 153 1 atoms.

Path energy minimization (PEM), a novel method for the generation of a reaction path linking two known conformers of a molecule, is presented. The technique is based on optimizing a function which closely approximates the peak potential energy of a quasi-continuous path between the fmed end points.

## Abstract A new method is presented to identify the truly interfacial molecules at fluid/fluid interfaces seen at molecular resolution, a situation that regularly occurs in computer simulations. In the new method, the surface is scanned by moving a probe sphere of a given radius along a large set

A method for determination of volcanic glass concentration in sedimentary sequences is presented. This method consists of two steps: (1) systematic extraction of volcanic glass particles from samples taken at close intervals in a sedimentary section, and the determination of their concentration; (2)
