Local control theory model parameters

The remainder of this paper is organized as follows In Sect. 5.2, we present the basic theory of the present control scheme. The validity of the theoretical method and the choice of optimal pulse parameters are discussed in Sect. 5.3. In Sect. 5.4 we provide several numerical examples i) complete electronic excitation of the wavepacket from a nonequilibrium displaced position, taking LiH and NaK as examples ii) pump-dump and creation of localized target wavepackets on the ground electronic state potential, using NaK as an example, and iii) bond-selective photodissociation in the two-dimensional model of H2O. A localized wavepacket is made to jump to the excited-state potential in a desirable force-selective region so that it can be dissociated into the desirable channel. Future perspectives from the author s point of view are summarized in Sect. 5.5. 

Although any of the four principal kinematical parameters of an excitable medium may be varied, below we consider only the effects caused by the changes of the parameter Go which gives the tangential velocity of growth of a flat broken wave. When the kinematical theory is applicable this parameter is small and can be significantly modified even by slight variations in the local properties of a medium. In our model the parameter Go effectively controls the excitability of the medium.
