✦ Synopsis

A new timedependent quantum-mechanical method which combines a coupled-channel expansion with a wave packet formalism is descrlded This method is applied to the study of rotationally inelastic scattering of H2 from a flat, rigid SW-f~aoe. Comparison with the results from a time-independent coupledxhannel calculation shows the new method to be highly accurate.
