Abstract
We show the use of exponential forms of ladder operators in solving the time dependent wave equation for simultaneous vibration–vibration and vibration–translation transitions in diatomic molecules. A general form for such transitions involving one‐quantum processes is obtained and applied to D2+D2. The VT steps strongly couple with VV processes at collision energies several times h/ω to reduce the overall VV energy exchange probability substantially.Keywords
