Présentation

The book is devoted to the stochastic approach to the theoretical description of chemical reaction kinetics in condensed phase, based on Langevin or Fokker-Planck equations for the motion along the reaction coordinate. This method is often opposed to the 'dynamic' one, used in the works on quantum mechanical theory of non-adiabatic reactions, although in fact they are not antagonists. The goal of the book is to describe both approaches and to demonstrate the relationship between them. The book involves an introduction into stochastic methods for charge transfer reactions and presents a detailed comparison of new approaches with more traditional ones.
