โฆ Synopsis
Abstract
The physical aspects of the primary charge separation processes in bacterial photosynthesis are discussed. The donorโacceptor model of electron transfer due to participation of protein current states is used. The kinetics of photosynthetic reaction center (PRC) processes is investigated and the PRC energetic scheme is constructed using the nonequilibrium density matrix method. It is shown that with allowance for the effect of vibrational sublevels of states participating in transitions the theory describes well experimental data.
