Vibrational dynamics is a field within physical chemistry and physics that studies the motions and interactions of atoms and molecules in a vibrating or oscillating state. It focuses on understanding the behavior of systems in these dynamic states, including analyzing how vibrational energy is transferred between different modes and how it affects the overall properties of the system. This research area is important in a variety of fields, such as spectroscopy, chemical reactions, and materials science, as it provides insight into the fundamental processes that govern molecular behavior.
