Effect of bending potential on calculated product-state distributions for the reaction H+D2 → HD+D

Abstract
We have calculated trajectories for H+D2 → HD+D using two potential energy surfaces that are identical for collinear geometries but differ for bent geometries. Weakening the bend potential has a negligible effect on the shape of the opacity function and product vibrational distribution but shifts the final rotational distribution upwards.
