  1. ΔE d is the barrier for diffusion of the fullerenes along the nanotube axis, ΔE r is the barrier for rotation of the fullerenes about the nanotube axis, ν d is the frequency of small relative vibrations of the fullerenes along the nanotube axis, ν z is the frequency of small relative rotational vibrations of the fullerenes about the nanotube axis, ν x and ν y are the frequencies of small relative rotational vibrations of the fullerenes about the two mutually perpendicular lateral axes.
