The trees for which maximum multiplicity implies the simplicity of other eigenvalues

Among those real symmetric matrices whose graph is a given tree $T$, the maximum multiplicity is known to be the path cover number of $T$. An explicit characterization is given for those trees for which whenever the maximum multiplicity is attained, all other multiplicities are $1$.
