Damping of vibrational dynamics in dimers attached to He nanodroplets — •Martin Schlesinger and Walter Strunz — Theoretische Quantendynamik, Physikalisches Institut, Universität Freiburg, Hermann-Herder-Str. 3, 79104 Freiburg

Femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy is a well-established tool for studying vibrations in diatomic molecules [1]. Recent experiments investigate the evolution of vibrational wave packets excited in K2 dimers attached to superfluid helium nanodroplets [2]. Deviations from gas-phase spectra are seen both in the time- and frequency domain. We simulate the pump-probe signal for the free molecule [3] and include different models to account for a possible damping of the wave packet due to the helium environment. For different damping constants, the effect is investigated by comparing with simulated gas-phase (no damping) and experimental spectra, for which we find good agreement. Our calculations show a shift of the central frequency of oscillations as also seen in the experiment.
