Abstract
SynopsisA quantum-dynamical study of the fragmentation of H2O+(2B2) is carried out by using wave packet propagations on ab initio potential energy surfaces connected by nonadiabatic couplings assuming a Franck- Condon initial wave packet from the ground state of the water molecule. The simulations indicate that a conical intersection between the 2B2 and à 2A1 states of H2O+ allows the transfer of 80% of the initial wave packet within 30 fs, while the Renner-Teller coupling between the à 2A1 and B1 states determines the fragmentation branching rations in the ps timescale.

Summary
Condon initial wave packet from the ground state of the water molecule. The simulations indicate that a conical intersection between the B 2B2 and A 2A1 states of H2O+ allows the transfer of 80% of the initial wave packet within 30 fs, while the Renner-Teller coupling between the A 2A1 and X 2B1 states determines the fragmentation branching rations in the ps timescale. In a recent work [1], we have carried out a
