Photochemistry in Terrestrial Exoplanet Atmospheres III: Photochemistry and Thermochemistry in Thick Atmospheres on Super Earths and Mini Neptunes [PDF]
Some super Earths and mini Neptunes will likely have thick atmospheres that are not H2-dominated. We have developed a photochemistry-thermochemistry kinetic-transport model for exploring the compositions of thick atmospheres on super Earths and mini ...

Benchmark {\em ab initio} energy profiles for the gas-phase S$_N$2 reactions Y$^-$ + CH$_3$X $\to$ CH$_3$Y + X$^-$ (X,Y = F,Cl,Br). Validation of hybrid DFT methods [PDF]
The energetics of the gas-phase S$_N$2 reactions Y$^-$ + CH$_3$X $\longrightarrow$ CH$_3$Y + X$^-$ (where X,Y = F, Cl, Br), were studied using (variants on) the recent W1 and W2 {\em ab initio} computational thermochemistry methods.

Thermochemistry of Elementary Reactions in Water–Gas Shift Reaction on Ni(111): An Ab Initio Study
A comprehensive thermodynamic study of the water–gas shift (WGS) reaction was performed using density functional theory (DFT). Chemisorption involves the formation of new chemical bonds between adsorbed species and atoms of the substrate.
