The difference between quantum and classical survival probabilities for molecular dissociation dynamics in the tithe domain, which arises mainly from quantum mechanical tunneling, has interesting characteristics that are not noticed through the counterpart in energy domain. It is shown that the early stage undergoes a fast tunneling, while the later stage is characterized with a long-lasting slow tunneling. The mechanism of this behavior is analyzed in terms of a quasi-semiclassical theory featuring the geometrical distribution of the so-called tunneling points. In particular, the role of dynamical tunneling is discussed as a phenomenon that typifies the time dependence of tunneling dynamics. It is predicted that these tunneling characteristics will be reflected in the isotope effect and should be experimentally observable.
