Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

Temporal evolution of wavepacket tunneling in a periodic double-well torsional potential has been studied numerically. Peculiarities of wavepacket tunneling dynamics under conditions of asymmetric distortion of the periodic potential function have been analyzed.
