Quantum and classical energy transfer between ligands of a heavy metal atom

Abstract

Quantum and classical vibrational energy transfer between two ligands separated by a heavy atom are compared for a model system, one ligand being vibrationally excited initially and the other unexcited. Similarities and differences of quantum and classical results are noted. The approximate separability of certain modes simplifies the interpretation.
