Today I am visiting the Chemistry department at Hyderabad Central University. My host is Susanta Mahapatra. He has done some very nice work on non-adiabatic dynamics in the excited states of organic molecules. A nice review is here. Some of this work is relevant to the puzzle of diffuse interstellar bands and is described in this PRL.
I am giving a talk "Effective Hamiltonians for excited states of fluorescent proteins and methine dyes". The slides are here. A relevant paper with Seth Olsen is here.
