Photodissociation Dynamics: Spectroscopy and Fragmentation of Small Polyatomic Molecules

by Reinhard Schinke

Book Overview

This text elucidates the achievements in calculating photodissociation cross sections and fragment state distributions from first principles, starting from multi-dimensional potential energy surfaces and the Schr dinger equation of nuclear motion. Following an extended introduction in which the various types of observables are outlined, the next four chapters summarize the basic theoretical tools, namely the time-independent and time-dependent quantum...
