We pay special attention to how the surface plasmon $\\omega_S$ influences the optical activity of fullerene. We find the lower energy fullerene excitons at 3.77 and 4.8 eV only weakly interact with the surface plasmon. However, we find the surface plasmon strongly interacts with the most intense fullerene $\\pi$ exciton, i.e.\\ the dipolar mode at $\\hbar\\omega_+\\approx$ 6.5 eV, and the quadrupolar mode at $\\hbar\\omega_-\\a"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1405.2860","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
