In e25784, Antonio J. Garzón, José G. López and Carlos A. Arango investigate the possibility of bond selective dissociation of the collinear BrHBr by the interaction of an infrared linear chirped pulse with prepared initial vibrational states of BrHBr. The cover image depicts the use of Hopf coordinates to globally explore the effect of the linear chirped laser pulse to linear combinations of the ψ 2,1 and ψ 4,0 quasi‐vibrational states of BrHBr. Each contour indicates the percentage of the wave packet going through the Br + HBr channel after 400 fs of propagation. The area outside the 50% contour shows specific linear combinations driven preferably to this channel. (DOI: 10.1002/qua.25784 )
