We propose a new mechanism for the radiationless decay of photoexcited pyrazine to its ground electronic state involving a conical intersection between the dark Au(nπ) state and the ground state.

On-the-fly excited state molecular dynamics is a valuable method for studying non-equilibrium processes in excited states and is beginning to emerge as a mature approach much like its ground state counterparts.

<p>An ultrafast structural, Jahn-Teller (JT) driven, electronic coherence mediated quantum dynamics in the CH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> and CD<sub>4</sub><sup>+ </sup>cations that follows a sudden ionization by an XUV attopulse, exhibits a strong isotope effect. The JT effect makes the methane cation unstable in the T<sub>d</sub> geometry of the neutral. Upon the sudden ionization the cation is produced in a coherent superposition of three electronic states that are strongly coupled. On the ground state of the cation the few femtosecond structural rearrangement leads first to a geometrically less distorted D<sub>2d</sub> minimum followed by a reorganization to a shallow C<sub>2v</sub> minimum. The dynamics is computed for an ensemble of 8000 ions randomly oriented with respect to the polarization of the XUV pulse. The ratio, about 3, of the CD<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> and CH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup><sub> </sub>autocorrelation functions, is in agreement with experimental measurements of the high harmonic spectra. The high value of the ratio is attributed to the faster electronic coherence dynamics in CH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>. </p>

We find a physical state of a closed universe with the minimal excitation of the universe expansion energy in quantum gravity. It is an analog of the vacuum state of the ordinary quantum field theory in the Minkowsky space, but in our approach an energy of space of a closed universe together with the energy of its matter content are minimized. This ground state is chosen among an enlarged set of physical states, compared with the ordinary covariant quantum gravity. In our approach, physical states are determined by weak constraints: quantum mechanical averages of gravitational constraint operators equal zero. As a result, they appear to be non-static in such a modification of quantum gravity. Quantum dynamics of the universe is described by Schrödinger equation with a cosmic time determined by weak gravitational constraints. In order to obtain the observed megascopic universe with the inflation stage just after its quantum beginning, a lot of the energy in the form of the inflaton scalar field condensate is prescribed to the initial state. Parameters of the initial state for a homogeneous model of the universe are calculated.
