| Abstract: | The expressions for moments of spectral density distribution of a Hamiltonian representing a system of N coupled Morse oscillators are reduced to the large‐N limit. The effect of the values of coupling constants on the spectral density distribution is analyzed. For the values of coupling constants within the pertinent range for real molecules, the relations between moments appear to be close to those for a Gaussian distribution. Outside this range, the deviations from the normal distribution are substantial. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002 |
