This protocol is a beginner's entryway into processing, fitting, and interpreting transient absorption spectra. The focus of this protocol is the preparation of datasets, and fitting using both single wavelength kinetics and global lifetime analysis. Challenges associated with transient absorption data and its fitting are discussed.
