23. high)] gives a lower bound, with confidence 1 -, on the activation energy for any transitions not observed so far.
24. In our TAD simulations the time-interval or block-time between tests for a transition to a different energy basin was 2 ps. Our cycle-time therefore corresponds to 15 block-times.
