Abstract
Nonlinear dynamics has been the subject of intense study in recent years. In this review article, we present a summary of our recent work in this field, in which nonlinear dynamics is applied to problems involving molecular behavior. Four aspects are described: (1) semiclassical methods for the calculation of bound-state eigenvalues, (2) classical spectra and correlation functions in the quasiperiodic and “chaotic” regimes, (3) “chaotic” behavior in quantum mechanics, and (4) applications to collisional and laser interactions.
Research sponsored by the U. S. Department of Energy under contract W-7405-eng-26 with the Union Carbide Corporation, and DOE at Sandia National Laboratory, and NSF at California Institute of Technology.
