Excited Electronic States
The session is intended to discuss studies of excited states. The photophysical and photochemical behavior of molecular systems can be studied with great detail today due to developments in theory and experimental techniques. The study of excited states finds applications in the biological, chemical, optical and physics communities. Theoretical and experimental papers are invited.
