Abstract in another language
Spectroscopy of individual light-harvesting 2 complexes from purple photosynthetic bacteria revealed a deformation of the circular complex into C2 symmetry. The present work relates the geometry of the deformed aggregate to its spectroscopic properties. Different models of elliptical deformation are discussed and compared with the experimental findings. It is shown that the model with smaller inter-pigment distances where the curvature of the ellipse is small, provides the best agreement with fluorescence excitation spectra of individual complexes.
