Researchers distinguish quantum excitations in individual molecules

Researchers examine how to identify different quantum states in individual molecules when theoretical models are unreliable. They ask which excitation processes produce particular measurement signals.

Molecules can occupy many different quantum states, raising questions about how researchers can distinguish those states through measurement when theoretical models are unreliable. A key challenge is determining which excitation process produces each observed signal.
