Quasiclassical dynamics of the I2-Ne2 vibrational predissociation: A comparison with experiment

The vibrational predissociation dynamics of the I2(B,v)-Ne2 complex is investigated for several vibrational levels of I2, using a quasiclassical trajectory approach. The time evolution of the population of nascent I2 fragments is calculated. A model is proposed which reproduces the results of the cl...
