This paper provides a systematic review and analysis of different phenomena that violate a
basic principle, Kasha's rule, when applied to photochemical reactions. In contrast to the …

Ultrafast photochemical reactions in liquids occur on similar or shorter time scales compared
to the equilibration of the optically populated excited state. This equilibration involves the …

Charge and proton transfer reactions in the excited states of organic dyes can be coupled in
many different ways. Despite the complementarity of charges, they can occur on different …

We review the tremendous advances in ultrafast X-ray science, over the past 15 years,
making the best use of new ultrashort X-ray sources including table-top or large-scale …

Tryptophan fluorescence wavelength is widely used as a tool to monitor changes in proteins
and to make inferences regarding local structure and dynamics. We have predicted the …

The present review is concerned with continuum and other implicit models of solvation
effects. We will concentrate on the elements required to make such models successful and …

Time-resolved emission measurements of the solute coumarin 153 (C153) are used to
probe the time dependence of solvation in 24 common solvents at room temperature …

This is an overview of some of the important, challenging, and problematic issues in
contemporary electron transfer research. After a qualitative discussion of electron transfer, its …

THE timescale of the response of solvent molecules to electronic rearrangement of solute
molecules has a critical influence on the rates of chemical reactions in liquids1–10. In …

Mixed-valence compounds contain an element which, at least in a formal sense, exists in
more than one oxidation state. 1, 2 This is a common phenomenon. Prussian blue, which …
