This chapter is devoted to describing the principal methods used for actually solving the key close-coupling equations of quantum inelastic molecular scattering theory. Two exact numerical methods for solving the coupled second-order differential equations are described in some detail and examples from the modern literature are presented. The integral equations of scattering theory are then derived and some approximate methods based on this treatment are described. Examples from the literature are included to illustrate the utility of the different methods.
