14. c. This issue will be explored in the future, but the choice of centroid constraint will not affect the order of magnitude of the PI-QTST rate constant.

17. According to the earlier simulations on single lithium systems, the three-vacancy site seems the best candidate for trapping based on energetics and comparison with experimental spectrum. However, the single vacancy-site is also energetically comparable to the three-vacancy site, and is statistically more preferable. The possibility of different trapping sites will be explored in future research.
