Abstract
A Monte Carlo technique has been used to determine the effect anharmonicity has on the value of the rate constant for the low-pressure unimolecular decomposition of a triatomic molecule. The calculations have made use of the realistic potential-energy surfaces that are available for O3 and H2O. The effect of anharmonicity is greater for O3 than for H2O.
