35. The remaining 42 trajectories terminated because of technical problems (e.g., failure to achieve SCF convergence, energy discontinuity in two consecutive MRCI calculations, etc.) and could therefore not be used in the analysis.
36. We note that simple photochemical processes, such as photodissociation, have been studied in small molecules by TSH simulations.
