In this study, kinetic cage effects are brought into a common focus with perturbation ideas on the intramolecular potential for molecular motion as modulated by intermolecular potential contributions. The kinetic inequalities $k_{{e}1}\gg {k}_{vib}\gg {k}_{relax}$ have their analogs in energy term inequalities in the complete Hamiltonian for a molecular solute interaction with the molecular environment. The Born-Oppenheimer separation of very fast and very slow events allows the $V_{relax}$ (intermolecular) term to be added to the $V_{vib}$ (intramolecular) term as a perturbation. The consideration of a series of molecular motions represented by a variety of theoretical potential functions permits a prediction of novel phenomenological consequences of the contribution of $V_{relax}$ from the molecule-environment perturbation. en_US dc.format.extent 130438 bytes dc.format.mimetype image/jpeg dc.language.iso English en_US dc.publisher Ohio State University en_US dc.title INTERMOLECULAR PERTURBATION OF MOLECULAR POTENTIAL FUNCTIONS AND THE PHENOMENOLOGY OF ENVIRONMENTAL SPECTRAL EFFECTS en_US dc.type article en_US
