This animation illustrates a sample chemical reaction using the
Quantum Trajectory Method introduced by Bohm. The scene depicts
an activated complex of a model reaction. The reactant
coordinate axis is oriented from left to right, and the product
axis extends out towards the viewer. The vertical cylinders
represent the probability of the state, and this vertical scale
is exaggerated. A grid in the original video has been removed
from this web version to economize the storage requirement of
the animation file. As the animation proceeds, the reactant
complex moves to the right, turning the transition state corner
toward the viewer as product is formed. Near the end of the
animation, reactants can be seen to start retreating back toward
the left, away from the transition complex. Quantum Trajectory
