Since the pioneering reaction dynamics studies of H + H<sub>2</sub> in the 1970s, theory increased the system size by one atom in every decade arriving to six-atom reactions in the early 2010s. Here, we take a significant step forward by reporting accurate dynamics simulations for the nine-atom Cl + ethane (C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>) reaction using a new high-quality spin-orbit-ground-state <i>ab initio</i> potential energy surface. Quasi-classical trajectory simulations on this surface cool th ...[more]
