Dynamical Jahn-Teller effects on the generation of electronic ring currents by circularly polarized light

The generation of electronic ring currents in ring-shaped molecules by photoexcitation with circularly polarized laser light is considered in the presence of vibronic coupling effects. (E×e) Jahn-Teller distortions, unavoidable by symmetry in the (E) subset of electronic states supporting the ring c...
