Resonance Raman spectroscopy from ab initio Hagedorn wavepacket dynamics
We present a practical, ab initio time-dependent method using Hagedorn wavepackets to simulate resonance Raman (RR) spectra of polyatomic molecules. Hagedorn functions---Gaussians multiplied by specific polynomials---are used to represent RR initial and final states because these functions are exact solutions to the ti...
