Abstract

The perturbative approximation theory recently developed in order to study the decay of non-markovian dissipative systems in the presence of high-intensity electromagnetic fields, is here shown to be especially suitable for applications to the theory of molecular systems undergoing both chemical relaxation and irradiation by external electromagnetic fields. In fact, such an approach allows irradiation processes to be studied without disregarding the non-markovian nature of chemical relaxation, which seems to be the most interesting new feature of the unimolecular reaction rate theory recently developed by Nordholm. Moreover, the paper shows how the theory by Nordhom can be improved in some respects, by defining, for example, the dissipative part of its effective hamiltonian in terms of a rigorous quantum mechanical formalism.
