This statement arises because nuclei are so much larger than electrons that they remain stationary on the timescale of photon absorption and emission, leading to vibrations, and it predicts electronic transitions to occur as the absolute square of the overlap integral, its namesake factor. FTP, name this principle that suggests that the most favored excited state is that whose wavefunction is most similar to the ground state.
