Estimates on the molecular dynamics for the predissociation process

We study the survival probability associated with a semiclassical matrix Schrödinger operator that models the predissociation of a general molecule in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. We show that it is given by its usual time-dependent exponential contribution, up to a reminder term that is small in the semiclassical parameter and for which we find the main contribution. The result applies in any dimension, and in presence of a number of resonances that may tend to infinity as the semiclassical parameter tends to 0. This is a joint work with Ph. Briet.
