The conventional use of pure angular momentum state representations in the algorithms for reactive scattering is discussed and the merits of alternative formulations in a finite element framework are considered with respect to possible numerical effectiveness. Four‐ and seven‐dimensional hyperspheres are discretized as means of describing three‐ and six‐dimensional scattering problems. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
