abstract
We use the semiclassical approximation for the relative motion (which is simplified and taken to be one-dimensional), neglect other collective degrees of freedom, and describe the coupling between relative motion and intrinsic degrees of freedom by a random-matrix model. This leads to an explicit expression for the friction coefficient. Numerical calculations show qualitative agreement with the data. 1976.
