Abstract
Simple-oscillator model. Anharmonicity and overcoming it by means of a strong field. Polyatomic molecules. Model of the excited mode damped by the interaction with a thermostat. Classical and quantum approaches. Large polyatomic molecules. Longitudinal and transverse relaxations. Fermi resonances, soft modes. Small polyatomic molecules. Number of atoms. Three stages of excitation. Excitation of quasicontinuum. Kinetic coefficients. Phase-volume average. Single degree of freedom of threefold degenerate mode excitation. Spectral dependencies.
