Microhydration stabilizes thymine's lowest π* shape resonances and increases the lowest resonance lifetime from 39 fs to 110 fs in the thymine(H2O)3 cluster, with effects depending on geometry and basis functions.

Do Water Molecules Always Stabilize Resonances? Microhydration Effects on Thymine Shape Resonances
Microhydration stabilizes thymine's lowest π* shape resonances and increases the lowest resonance lifetime from 39 fs to 110 fs in the thymine(H2O)3 cluster, with effects depending on geometry and basis functions.
