✦ Synopsis

We examine the conditions for the validity of the sudden approximation and investigate the utility and validity of the weak-coupling limit of the sudden approximation. We also discuss purely classical calculations in the sudden approximation, showing that these contain the inter-relations recently established in the quantum coordinate representation sudden approximation.

Exact and vibrational sudden approximation (VSA) transition probabilities for He+ HIZ, Be&, BeBr, and CO2 at 0.5 to 3.0 eV are calculated and compared. The agreement between the VSA and the exact results for the excitation of the symmetric stretch is excellent for HI2 (even for large changes in the
