The following torques are familiar to me from field applied molecular dynamics computer simulation, in which the field was coded into the forces loop. Each torque type can be amplified by the resonance mechanism sent over in note 183(1). In each case the laser is circularly polarized and spins the ion or molecule. This can be seen in the animation with Chris Pelkie made at Cornell Theory Center from simulation code.

1) Torque between the permanent electric dipole and E(1) = E(2)*.
2) Permanent magnetic dipole and B(1) = B(2)*
3) B(3) induced magnetic dipole moment and B(1) = B(2)*

The circularly polarized light causes torques of various kinds, and the ion or molecule is spun. The catalyst causes this spin to be amplified by Euler resonance and this causes dissociation by centrifugal forces breaking bonds. This is one class of basic mechanisms. All ions will have a permanent electric dipole moment with which E(1) = E(2)* interacts directly. That is the strongest or dominant mechanism That mechanism causes rotation as in the animation on www.aias.us with Chris Pelkie of Cornell Theory Center. The B(3) mechanism is (3) above. This is the dominant mechanism when there is no permanent electric or magnetic dipole moment. These days such mechanisms could be set up and simulated / animated in various catalysts with Monte Carlo or molecular dynamics.

Congratulations once again on your work!
