Evolution of reactant consumption. a Integrated rate law for the reaction outside and inside of the cavity at several detunings. The departure of the VSC enhanced kinetics with respect to the bare case becomes more significant at resonance. b Evolution of effective Rabi splittings as the reaction progresses. The effects on the kinetics are observed when the VSC regime (${\mathrm{\Omega }}_N>0.01{\omega }_{\mathrm{P}}$) is achieved. For these calculations, $M=N_{\mathrm{R}}\left(0\right)=10^7$, ${\omega }_{\mathrm{R}}={\omega }_{\mathrm{P}}$, $k_{\mathrm{B}}T=0.2\hslash {\omega }_{\mathrm{P}}$, and $E_{001}^{‡}=3.5\hslash {\omega }_{\mathrm{P}}$
