Energy transfer to an anharmonic diatomic system

We model an anharmonic diatomic molecule using deformed creation and annihilation operators such that the energy spectrum generated by a Hamiltonian of the harmonic oscillator's form written in terms of deformed operators is similar to that of a Morse potential. We construct an approximate time evolution operator and evaluate transition probabilities which are compared with those obtained by an expansion in a basis of Morse eigenfunctions. The algebraic results compare favorably with the numerical results.
