Friction constants are provided in units of  ps−1.

2

The forward direction is the c7c5 transition.

3

Rates are provided in units of 10−2 ps−1.

Note: The refined χ1 separatrix shows the closest agreement in the forward and reverse escape rates for all friction constants, and an escape rate nearly the relaxation rate in the high friction limit.
