Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

In the present chapter we turn to the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator potentials for which the Schrodinger equation admits analytic solutions. This will allow us to examine the vibrational spectrum of quantum systems, and in particular, diatomic molecules.
