The theory of the interaction of the vibrational excitations (vibrons) with the lattice vibrations in solid hydrogen is developed. The phonons are treated in the self-consistent harmonic (SCH) approximation appropriate to quantum crystals. The vibron–phonon interaction is expanded in terms of the SCH phonon operators rather than in powers of the displacements of the molecules from their equilibrium positions. First- and second-order perturbation corrections to the vibron energies arising from the vibron–phonon coupling are calculated. The effect of the anharmonicity of the intramolecular vibrations in conjunction with the vibron–phonon coupling is also discussed.

AbstractA self-consistent study of the formation of planetary bodies beyond the orbit of Saturn and the evolution of Kuiper disks is carried out by means of an N-body code where accretion and gravitational encounters are considered. This investigation is focused on the aggregation of massive bodies in the outer planetary region and on the consequences of such process in the corresponding cometary belt. We study the link between the bombardment of massive bodies and mass depletion and eccentricity excitation.
