Dynamics of intramolecular vibrational-energy redistribution (IVR). II. Excess energy dependence

Abstract
The results of picosecond‐resolved measurements of intramolecular vibrational‐energy redistribution (IVR) in jet‐cooled anthracene at different excess energies are presented. From these results, the nature of IVR as a function of vibrational energy, the relevant time scales for the process, and the details of pertinent vibrational couplings are determined.
