We study the quantum dynamics of diatomic molecule driven by a circularly polarized resonant electric field. We look for a quantum effect due to classical chaos appearing due to the overlapping of nonlinear reso-nances associated to the vibrational and rotational motion. We solve the Schrödinger equation associated with the wave function expanded in term of proper stationary states, |n> |lm> (vibrational angular momentum states). Looking for quantum-classic correspondence, we consider the Liouville dynamics in the two dimensional phase space defined by the coherent-like state of vibrational states. We consider the rela-tionship between the overlapping of the classical resonances and the mixing of the quantum states, and it is found some similarities when the quantum dynamics is pictured in terms of number and phase operators.We study the quantum dynamics of diatomic molecule driven by a circularly polarized resonant electric field.

Rotating Morse wave packet dynamics of diatomic molecule

Utpal Roy, Suranjana Ghosh

We investigate the dynamics of a rotating Morse wave packet, appropriate for a ro-vibrating diatomic molecule. The coupling between vibrational and rotational degrees of freedom is explicated in real position space as well as in phase space Wigner distribution of a SU(2) coherent state at various dynamically evolved times. We choose the well studied $I_{2}$ molecule with the parameter values in good agrement with experiments. A quantitative measure of the angles of rotations for different angular momenta is also given.We investigate the dynamics of a rotating Morse wave packet, appropriate for a ro-vibrating diatomic molecule.
