Optimized hyperplanar transition state theory (OH-TST).
Implements the reversible-work variational TST of Johannesson and Jonsson, J. Chem. Phys. 115, 9644 (2001), doi:10.1063/1.1415499. A hyperplanar dividing surface in the 3N-dimensional configuration space, parameterized by a point on a reactant->product guideline and a unit normal, is advanced by damped (velocity-zeroing) Verlet dynamics on the plane position (Eqs 5-7) and orientation (Eqs 8-10, Appendix A), driven by canonical-ensemble averages of the force sampled with thermostatted dynamics constrained to the plane. The free-energy barrier follows from the translational and rotational reversible work (Eqs 18-19), the flux prefactor from the direction-dependent effective mass (Eqs 23-24), and the configuration-integral ratio from crossing statistics of an unconstrained reactant trajectory (Eq 22).
