Fluorescence-detected Wavepacket Interferometry reveals time-varying Exciton Relaxation Pathways in single Light-Harvesting Complexes

Using fluorescence-detected wavepacket interferometry on single light-harvesting complexes, researchers revealed that time-varying fluctuations in the protein environment modulate exciton relaxation pathways by altering the coupling between electronic excitations and low-frequency vibrational modes.

Non-Thermal Production of Sexaquark Dark Matter

This paper proposes that non-thermal production mechanisms, specifically involving late-decaying reheatons in low-reheating-temperature scenarios, can naturally overcome the abundance deficit of thermal sexaquark dark matter models by linking the final relic density to the branching fraction into strange-quark-rich matter and the coalescence probability during the early universe.
