✦ Synopsis
A quasiclassical smooth sampling calculation ofreaction probabilities has been carried out for the collinear reaction X + F2 (u = 0) -~XF + F (X = Mu, H, D, T) in the threshold region. The quasiclassical reaction probabilities are in poor agreement with corresponding quantum results. We attribute this to the essentially arbitrary way in which a continuous vibrational product distribution is "quantized" in a quasiclassical calculation, and to the neglect of tunnelling.
