Abstract
We describe several applications of the Fast Fourier transform algorithm for numerical solutions of the few body Schrodinger equation. Simple models for quantum diffusion of interacting particles are studied in detail. Thermal relaxation and friction effects in non- adiabatic tunneling systems is studied within the semiclassical time dependent Self Consistent Field approximations.

In some situations it may be better to use instead of T an effective “quasiclassical temperature” to account for zero point motion. See A. Nitzan and J.C. Tully, J. Chem. Phys. 78, 3959 (1983).
