Abstract
The static theory shows that the bond structure of C-60 is distorted b y charge transfer and the distortion of C-60(-) is localized in the eq uatorial area to form a string polaron with symmetry D-5d. This paper further studies the dynamical process of forming the polaron. The time -dependence of the bond distortion demonstrates the evolution of the l attice relaxation from the symmetry I-h to D-5d, and the calculated re laxation dime agrees with the experiment.
