Supersymmetric potential approach is used to analyze the effect
Maximum rate achieved at a specific number of subdivisions
Abstract
We examine the effect of subdividing the potential barrier along the reaction coordinate on Kramers' escape rate for a model potential. Using the known supersymmetric potential approach, we show the existence of an optimal number of subdivisions that maximises the rate.
