โœฆ Synopsis

Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed on the collision between a cesium ion and a cluster of twenty methanol molecules. This process, generating a solvated ion, was studied over a range (I to 25 eV> of eight collision energies. Preliminary analysis of this gas phase solvation has included the distribution of final ion cluster sizes, fragmentation patterns, salvation timescales and energetics. Two distinct patterns have emerged: a ballistic penetration of the neutral cluster at the higher collision energies and an evaporative evolution of the cluster ion at lower collision energies.

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the flexibility of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX). A potentiaienergy surface was constructed using spectroscopic and theoretical data. The activation barrier for the boat-to-twist-boat pseudorotation is calculated to be 0.8 kcal mol-I.
