Abstract
Coherent states suitable for the description of molecular rotations are dev eloped and their connection to similar coherent states in the literature ar e explored. In particular their quasiclassical properties are developed. Th e use of such coherent states in time-dependent electron nuclear dynamics s tudies of molecular collision processes is discussed.
