Study of the double non linear quantum resonances in diatomic molecules

Quantum Physics 2015-05-20 v1

Abstract

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 resonances associated to the vibrational and rotational motion. We solve the Schr\"odinger equation associated with the wave function expanded in term of proper stationary states, n>lm>|n>\otimes|lm> (vibrational\otimesangular 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, and it is found some similarities when the quantum dynamics is pictured in terms of number and phase operators.
