Outline
What we learned about the MIF from studies of the anomalous isotope effect in O3?
What remains a challenge for theory and experiment on ozone?
What has already been done on the S-containing species?
What can be done in the near future on the S-containing species?
(Mauersberger, Geophys. Res. Lett. 8, 935, 1981)
(Heidenreich & Thiemens, JCP 78, 892, 1983)
In the laboratory studies: equal in 17O and 18O “mass independent”
Discovery of Enrichments in O3In the atmosphere:“anomalous”
O + O2 + M O3 + M
(Mauersberger and co., J. Geophys. Res. 95, D1, 901, 1990).
Rates can differ by more then 50%,remarkably large isotope effect taking into account a small change of mass!
Traced to the three-body recombination reaction which forms ozone:

State of the Problem before the Y 2000
“Currently, in spite of 15 years of intensive experimental and theoretical investigation,.. the mechanism that is responsible remains unidentified.”
“Despite the progress that has been made during the past 10 years, a convincing physical explanation of the process that results in enrichment is still missing.”
M. H. Thiemens, Science 283, 341 (1999) K. Mauersberger, Science 283, 370 (1999)
- Theory was not particularly successful.
- Experiments results were not complete and were not summarized in the form useful to theoreticians.
- Situation changed dramatically in the XXI century!
Relative Rates (Exp.) (Mauersberger and co., PCCP 3, 4718, 2001)
Very strong isotope effects.
No any obvious correlation with O3 masses.

xO + yOzO → (xOyOzO)* → xOyO + zO
+ M → O3
Their explanation of the correlation:
ZPEs of O2 on the reactant and product sides are different. The atom exchange reaction is slightly exothermic or endothermic. This affects rate of the reaction, and lifetime of the intermediates.
This paper stimulated new round of theoretical work.

The First Quantum Dynamics Treatment (Clary)
● Vibrational motion of O3 is described by the wavefunction:
● A reduced dimensionality approximation is employedin which the bending angle in Jackoby coordinates is fixed:
This wave function is represented numerically by a 2D-grid of points (140x140)

The First Quantum Results (Clary)
● Results of this very nice work were not particularly encouraging: only one reaction showed large isotope effect in the right direction. In all other cases the isotope effect was either small, or in wrong direction.
● No any correlation was observed. No clear mechanism proposed.
● Due to a number of approximations used it was somewhat hard to figure out the problem.
Note: This method was successful in the treatment of HCN + Ar energy transfer.
What possibly could be a problem in O3 case?
My guess is: Unlucky combination of the PES features + reduced dimensionality implemented using Jackobi coordinates.

Role of Quantum Scattering Resonances (Babikov)
● Focus on energies and lifetimes of O3* states.
● Vibrational wave functions are full dimensional (3D):
- the adiabatically-adjusting principal-axes hyper-spherical
coordinates (APH) are employed.
● Accurate ab initio global PES was used.
● Only the J = 0 case was considered.
● Coupled-Channel treatment of O + O2 scattering is employed.

Introducing DZPE into Classical Trajectories (Schinke)
Although it is impossible to introduce rigorously the quantum ZPE into classical trajectory simulations, it appears feasible to mimic the DZPE effect using a simple trick:
- DZPE is introduced into the PES ad hoc;- The time classical trajectories for O + O2 spend in the O3* region is determined;
Schinke and Fleurat-Lessard, JCP 122, 94317 (2005).
),()(1)( TkeP T
Adjustable parameters describe stabilization and are used to fit the experimental data:
E
- symmetry effect (postulated).
- energy transfer efficiency (model),
- stabilizing collision frequency ( ~ P ),
Smooth dependence,no resonances.
- Stabilization probability is defined as:
3D Coupled-Channel Treatment (Bowman)
● Same approach as Clary, but O3 wave functions are full dimensional (3D), as the PES. A basis set of 100 Legendre polynomials is used for the bending motion.
● Calculations were carried out only for ℓ = 0(zero impact parameter), single value of collision energy, and three orientations of O3*(head, tail, perpendicular).
● The focus was on the DZPE effect and the role of van der Waals states.
Xie and Bowman, Chem. Phys. Lett. 412, 131 (2005).
Results: - Confirmed importance of the DZPE range;- Proposed that the vdW states are
important.
J > 0 Calculations of the DZPE Effect (Grebenshchikov)
● Centrifugally Sudden Approximation for rotation and the symmetric top rotor model are used.
● PES is simplified by removing the vdW part, leaving only the covalent well.
● Narrow resonances (G ≤ 1 cm-1) are determined for J ≤ 40, K ≤ 10.
● First order perturbation theory is used to determine the branching ratios for two channels.
● Stabilization is not treated, simple model is used (strong collision assumption).
Grebenshchikov and Shinke, JCP 131, 181103 (2009).
The bottom-line:
Several different authors/methods show importance of the DZPE range. Although not yet modeled with full rigor, this effect appears to be fairly well understood at this point.

● Sudden Collision Approximation for energy transfer in the Ar + O3 collisions; IOSA and the Coupled-Channel formalism.
● Similar to Clary/Bowman, but only the bound states (below dissociation threshold) are taken into consideration.
Q.: Inaccurate near threshold?
● The wave functions and the PES are full dimensional, but the PES is simplified by removing the vdW part, leaving only the covalent well.Results: Expected symmetry effect was not observed... Agreement with classical trajectory simulations was surprisingly good (small effect in wrong direction).
Quantum Symmetry Effect in a Model System (Pack)
This simple problem allows to carry out very clean VRIOSA calculations:- masses are slightly modified in order to have exactly the same reduced masses, same energies and lifetimes of all states. - there is no DZPE here, any difference
seen is due to symmetry in the Ne2* + M collision.
- number of states is small and easy to treat.

transitions in 1618 (1717). Quantum effect, classical trajectories would not reproduce.
- this opens additional pathways for the energy transfer and increases the recombination rates.

Scaling with J- Size of the Hamiltonian matrix scales
linearly with J : 1296 x 1296 for J=0

scales as ~ J3, J2.

Scaling with Number of Atoms
- Number of vibrational degrees of freedom is 3N–6. - Most QM methods use Direct
Product Basis sets (DPB) to express the wave function. As result:
Parallelization Problem ( Poirier )
It is found that when the quantum dynamics calculations are parallelized using standard math libraries the efficiency significantly drops after p ~10 or so (communication).
Chen and Poirier, J. Comp. Phys. 219 (2006) 185.
B. Poirier has shown that using the sparsity pattern of the Hamiltonian matrix, a speedup close to linear and efficiency close to one can be achieved with large number of processors for large systems.

• The bending angle is “relaxed” to convert 3D PES into a 2D PES, V(r1,r2).
• The overall topology of the surface is preserved:
De, w, “reef”, vdW wells, channels.
• Two channels allow studying the DZPE effect.
• The effect of the bending enters through the bending energy correction and the partition function.

The internal vibrational motion is treated with QM using the TDSE (wave packet): resonances, DZPE and permutation symmetry.
The collisional motion O3* + M and rotation of O3* are treated using classical trajectories: computational advantage.
Energy is exchanged between translation, rotation, vibration.Total energy is conserved.

Can Quantum Isotope Effects Contribute to S-MIF ?
Several gas-phase reactions involve S-atoms and may exhibit the DZPE and symmetry isotope effects: Gao and Marcus, JCP 127, 244316 (2007).
S + S2 (+ M) → S3 Sm + Sn (+ M) → Sn+m
SO + O (+ M) → SO2
SO2 + O (+ M) → SO3
SO + H (+ M) → HSOSO2 + OH (+ M) → HSO3
CI Recombination by ET:

Relative Rates (Exp.) (Mauersberger and co., PCCP 3, 4718, 2001)
Although not really a one-day job, the classical trajectory simulations can be carried out for variety of chemical reactions relatively easily.
Size of the molecule - the number of degrees of freedom, is not really a problem. (Well, given the potential energy surface…)
Can Dynamics Methods be Applied to S-MIF ?

Construction of the Potential Energy Surfaces
Before the nuclear dynamics is studied, the electronic structure problem is solved for many nuclear configurations (independently). Dependence of electronic energy on nuclear configurations gives the potential energy surface. Motion of the nuclei on this surface (dynamics) is studied next.
Two major methods for building a continuous surface from the descrete ab initio data points:
- Spline (highly accurate, but practical only for small molecules);
- Analytic fit (the only way to go in the case of larger polyatomics).
Permutational invariance is important in the context of the isotope effects,which affects the choice of
- Coordinates;
- Functional form of the fitting function.

Potential Energy Surface of S3
There is no global potential energy surface available for S3 at this time. Exploratory work showed many similarities to O3:
Francisco and co., JCP 123, 54302 (2005).
Francisco and co., JCP 125, 84314 (2006).
- Isoelectronic, structural similarities;
- Two isomers, cyclic-S3 is at much lower energies, 4.39 kcal/mol.- Calculations at MRCI+Q/CBS are needed to reproduce spec. const.
- Covalent well is much deeper, 2.7 eV, vibrational frequencies are smaller (translates into density of states and number of coupled channels).

Conclusions Very neat quantum mechanical effects lead to MIF in O3: - DZPE effect; - symmetry effect; - scattering resonances.
Challenges for theory and experiment on ozone: - spectroscopically accurate PES near O + O2 threshold; - collisional stabilization of O3* and the symmetry effect; - dynamics and spectroscopy near threshold.
Work done on the S-containing species: - Predictions of statistical theory for SO2; - PESs of SO2; preliminary work on S3; - Photo-absorption spectra of SO2 .
In the near future: - Accurate PESs for S3 ( MRCI-CBS level ); - Classical trajectory studies for S3 and SO2 ( aka Schinke ); - Energy transfer in the S3 + M collisions ( mixed Q-C ).
