The nonadiabatic mechanism that mediates nonradiative decay of the bright S2 state to the dark S1 state of carotenoids involves population of a bridging intermediate state, Sx, in several examples. The nature of Sx remains to be determined definitively, but it has been recently suggested that Sx corresponds to conformationally distorted molecules evolving along out-of-plane coordinates of the isoprenoid backbone near a low barrier between planar and distorted conformations on the S2 potential surface. In this study, the elec
