Photodissociation; molecules; interaction of photon with molecules

We have solved the time dependent Schrödinger equation by using the Chebyshev polynomial scheme and Fourier grid Hamiltonian method to calculate the dissociation cross section of NaH molecule by 1-photon absorption from the X¹Σ⁺ state to the B¹Π state. We have found that the results differ significantly from an earlier calculation [1] although we have used the same set of potential energy curves [2].
