Photosynthetic induction strongly affects the light compensation point of net photosynthesis and coincidentally the apparentquantumyield.
From theCambridge English Corpus
If true, this would contradict the observation that thequantumyieldis nearly independent of both temperature and the excitation energy.
From theCambridge English Corpus
When grown in deep shade (2%) species significantly differed in their light-saturated rates of photosynthesis, apparentquantumyieldand chlorophyll concentration.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The dotted line represents the strain simulation results, and the solid line represents thequantumyieldresults.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Moreover, this critical shell size correlates well with the shell size at whichquantumyieldis maximal.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The energy-gap law thus would predict a considerably lowerquantumyieldin the reverse reaction than in the forward reaction.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In a simple, but physically consistent semi-classical picture, thequantumyielddepends on the momentum of the wavepacket (or corresponding classical trajectory) in the crossing region.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In addition, there is some evidence that the critical shell thickness found in these simulations is related to the maximal values ofquantumyield, as found experimentally.

This is the case when measuring thequantumyieldor when finding the wavelength with the highest emission intensity for instance.
From
Wikipedia
Thequantumyieldfor an ideal system undergoing photocatalytic events is measured as the number of events occurring per photon absorbed.
From

From
Wikipedia
