Reaction Path
Linked via "reactants"
The reaction path, often denoted $\mathbf{r}(t)$ or $\xi(\tau)$, is a fundamental concept in chemical kinetics and theoretical chemistry used to describe the energetic trajectory a system of molecules takes during a transformation from reactants to products. It represents the sequence of nuclear configurations that minimizes the potential energy along the specific path connecting the stable minima (reactants and products) on the [Potential Energy Sur…
