With :func:`~chemistrykit.photochem.kasha_emission_yields`, a molecule excited to :math:`S_2` sends only a tiny fraction of its emission from :math:`S_2`; the exception is a molecule like azulene, whose large :math:`S_2`-:math:`S_1` gap slows internal conversion enough for :math:`S_2` emission to compete. ..
