1379   The Hamiltonian of rigid body can be separated in terms of kinetic
1380   energy and potential energy, $H = T(p,\pi ) + V(q,Q)$. The equations
1381   of motion corresponding to potential energy and kinetic energy are

1588   One may notice that $R(t)$ depends only on initial conditions, which
1589   implies it is completely deterministic within the context of a
1590   harmonic bath. However, it is easy to verify that $R(t)$ is totally
