• Note that within our model, the atomic and molecular guests are both treated as electronic two-level-systems of markedly differing excitation frequency. For the sake of simplicity, we neglect the possibility of non-adiabatic electronic transitions within a manifold of excited states or of simultaneous transitions to multiple excited states under the spectral bandwidth of the short laser pulses

• We reported similar calculations on an isolated non-rotating I2 molecule and an I2–Ar van der Waals complex. See: M. A. Rohrdanz and J. A. Cina in Ultrafast Phenomena XIV, edited by T. Kobayashi, T. Okada, T. Kobayashi, K. A. Nelson, and S. De Silvestri (Springer, Berlin, 2005), p. 523. For the calculations with finite-duration pulses, that work incorrectly stated the standard deviation of the Gaussian pulse envelopes as 5 fs. The actual number used was 31.4 fs (i.e. 2π × 5 fs). With this longer pulse duration, the semi-classical Franck–Condon approximation and the neglect of pulse overlap are less accurate than they would be with 5 fs pulses, but the qualitative interpretation of the calculated signals still applies

• The arbitrary units on the ordinate of figure 6 can be regarded as the same as those of figure 2 if the product E 0 σ0 is assigned the same value in both cases, despite the difference in pulse duration; this choice accounts for the similar sizes of the resonantly pumped difference signals in figures 6 and 2
