Abstract

It is shown that the changes in the non-radiative decay rate of dilute aromatic vapors, following excitation of higher-lying singlet states, can be related to the dependence of vibrational level distribution (in S₁) upon the initially excited singlet states. The excitation energy dependence of radiationless decay rate in anthracene vapor is discussed in detail.
