Unveiling solvation dynamics of excited and ground states via ultrafast pump–dump–probe spectroscopy by Guo, Yuanyuan, Feng, Minjun, Kuang, Zhuoran, Abeywickrama, Chathura S., Pang, Yi, Xia, Andong

“…It is found that GSIs undergo slower reorganization than the PICT formation in the excited state of EPP due to the solvation effect with different dipole moments of ground states and excited states. These findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the full photocycle dynamics of both the ground and excited states, shedding light on the presence of hidden ground state behaviors.…”

User satisfaction and service quality improvement priority of bus rapid transit in Belo Horizonte, Brazil by Zheng, Yunhan, Kong, Hui, Petzhold, Guillermo, Barcelos, Mariana M, Zegras, Christopher P, Zhao, Jinhua

“…Our results show that “expenses with public transport” (i.e. fares) should be addressed first among all the attributes, and the improvement priorities of “speed”, “reliability” and “customer service” increased after the BRT opening. These findings can help policymakers fine-tune improvement strategies targeted at different types of services.…”
