Mess Input files

This directory contains the input files for the program `Master Equation System Solver` (MESS).

├──mess.tar.gz | | ├── mess.inp                                   : The input file for the mess calculation at T=100K and p=1e-7 atm is reported using as a string for reactants, products, ts, and intermediates are indicated using the ID of Chemoton. The simulation was run using the GitHub version of MESS (commit hash: 8cd1f7b7a152bb561acc7b3237417ba0146e3717).
