✦ Synopsis
Ar. analysis of the fluorescence of 3,4-benzpyrene in the vapour phase shows two contributions to the. "anomalous" fluorescence: (i) the emission from the second excited state to the ground state and (ii) a vibronically induced S1 -. So emission originating from the +520 cm -' vibrational level. A comparison between the intensities of the emissions indicates that in the vapour phase the vibr%tional redistribution from the 520 cm -' vibrational level of SI !o modes of tower frequencies is relatively slow.
