Abstract
The Front Cover shows light interacting with a rhodopsin protein in the eye. Upon photoabsorption, the retinal chromophore inside the protein isomerizes. The impact of the protein environment on the active vibrations of the retinal chromophore during photoabsorption is still not well understood. In their Research Article (DOI: 10.1002/cphc.202400878), L. H. Andersen and co-workers examine an unperturbed retinal in vacuo at cryogenic temperature, measuring excited-state coherent oscillations by time-resolved action spectroscopy.
期刊介绍:
ChemPhysChem is one of the leading chemistry/physics interdisciplinary journals (ISI Impact Factor 2018: 3.077) for physical chemistry and chemical physics. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies.
ChemPhysChem is an international source for important primary and critical secondary information across the whole field of physical chemistry and chemical physics. It integrates this wide and flourishing field ranging from Solid State and Soft-Matter Research, Electro- and Photochemistry, Femtochemistry and Nanotechnology, Complex Systems, Single-Molecule Research, Clusters and Colloids, Catalysis and Surface Science, Biophysics and Physical Biochemistry, Atmospheric and Environmental Chemistry, and many more topics. ChemPhysChem is peer-reviewed.
