Abstract
The optical properties of a small magnetic cluster are studied in a magnetic version of Frank-Condon principle. This simple model is considered to show new basic physics and could be adopted to treat real problems. The energies and wavefunctions of the cluster are calculated for different spin configurations to evaluate the energies and the strengths of the allowed transitions from the relaxed excited states. The optical de-excitation energies for the likely scenarios are obtained in terms of the exchange parameters of the model.
