R. Bigwood et M. Gruebele, A SIMPLE MATRIX MODEL OF INTRAMOLECULAR VIBRATIONAL REDISTRIBUTION AND ITS IMPLICATIONS, Chemical physics letters, 235(5-6), 1995, pp. 604-613
A multiple-range local matrix model for IVR is applied to systems with
up to 100000 active states. Applications include calculation of IVR t
ransients and high-resolution spectra of molecular models for vibratio
nally excited 1-propyne and trihalomethanes. The model bridges recent
statistical theories and detailed quantum simulations on specific syst
ems, and several different IVR regimes can be qualitatively distinguis
hed. In many cases, characteristic deviations from exponential decay b
ehavior and/or the Golden Rule are observed.
