Interplay between the gentlest ascent dynamics method and conjugate directions to locate transition states

An algorithm to locate transition states on a potential energy surface (PES) is proposed and described. The technique is based on the GAD method where the gradient of the PES is projected into a given direction and also perpendicular to it. In the proposed method, named GAD-CD, the projection is not...
