Abstract
Fast and efficient energy transfer in photosynthetic antennas supports all life on earth. Nonadiabatic energy transfer drives unusual vibrations through tight coupling with electronic motion. Polarization dependent vibrational motion drives polarization independent femtosecond energy transfer.Keywords
