Abstract: Taking a prototype chemical reaction (molecular hydrogen plus hydrogen atom), constructs an accurate semiempirical, generalized diatomics-in-molecules potential energy surface, calculates motions of these atoms on this surface using REACTS trajectory program, and presents results as moving picture on a microcomputer graphics system. Provides trajectory calculations and reaction animation on a microcomputer. (Author/JN)
