✦ Synopsis

Low-lying electronically excited states of C60 and C7o were identified in picosecond transient absorption measurements extending in wavelength down to 1000 nm. Spectral features in the near-infrared region were found to be significantly different from the results of previous studies. The lifetimes for S~ states of C6o and C7o were determined to be 1.3 _+ 0.2 ns and 0.7 + 0.05 ns, respectively. A simple energy diagram for electronic states of C6o and C7o is presented.
