Formation of hydrated electron states in water is investigated within the polaron model which is described by a system of nonlinear partial differential equations. This framework is shown to provide an agreement of numerical results with experimental data on absorbtion of the light by the hydrated electron. Mathematical formulation of problem and the numerical approach are described, results of numerical simulation are presented in comparison with experimental data.
