• Abstract summary: We study the elastic response of a stationarily driven system strongly coupled with molecular excitons. We show that the frequently used coupled oscillator model fails in describing this response. Our results can be used as a sanity check of the experiments trying to "prove" results originating from strong coupling.

• Abstract: We study the elastic response of a stationarily driven system of a cavity field strongly coupled with molecular excitons, taking into account the main dissipation channels due to the finite cavity linewidth and molecular vibrations. We show that the frequently used coupled oscillator model fails in describing this response especially due to the non-Lorentzian dissipation of the molecules to their vibrations. Signatures of this failure are the temperature dependent minimum point of the polariton peak splitting, uneven polariton peak height at the minimum splitting, and the asymmetric shape of the polariton peaks even at the experimentally accessed "zero-detuning" point. Using a rather generic yet representative model of molecular vibrations, we predict the polariton response in various conditions, depending on the temperature, molecular Stokes shift and vibration frequencies, and the size of the Rabi splitting. Our results can be used as a sanity check of the experiments trying to "prove" results originating from strong coupling, such as vacuum-enhanced chemical reaction rate.

• Cavity-modified unimolecular dissociation reactions via intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution [0.0]
  We show that an optical cavity resonantly coupled to particular anharmonic vibrational modes can interfere with unimolecular dissociation reaction rates. In particular, when the cavity is initially empty, the dissociation rate decreases, while when the cavity is initially hotter than the molecule, the cavity can instead accelerate the reaction rate.
