pattern of motion in which all parts of the system move sinusoidally with the same frequency and with a fixed phase relation

Also known as Normal Mode Coordinate



Normal coordinates refer to the positions of atoms away from their equilibrium positions, wrt a normal mode of vibration. Formally, normal modes are determined by solving a secular determinant, and then the normal coordinates can be expressed as a summation over the cartesian coordinates (over the atom positions). The normal modes diagonalize the matrix governing the molecular vibrations.
