Abstract
In this paper, we present a derivation of Chesnavich's Hamiltonian for a model ion-molecule reaction. The model system has the basic structure of a rigid body coupled to a structureless particle. Using the form of the potential energy of interaction given by Chesnavich, we derive the equilibria, determine their stability, and construct two, two-dimensional invariant manifolds and determine their stability.
