Abstract :
The recent MDQT (molecular dynamics with quantum transitions) trajectory surface hopping technique developped by Tully is applied to vibrational predissociation of the Van der Waals complex Ar⋯I2. The vibration of I2 is treated quantum mechanically while the relative motion of the Ar atom with respect to I2 is treated classically. The results show that even for this extreme case where no actual crossings between quantum potential energy surfaces exist, the method provides satisfactorily results for the vibrational predissociation rates.
