Following the recently obtained structures of a variety of photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes from plants and bacteria our interest in understanding the relation between structure, function and spectroscopy has strongly increased. These data demonstrate a short interpigment distance (of the order of 1 nm or even smaller) and/or a highly symmetric (ring-like) arrangement. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Exciton theory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85046245 650 0 Photosynthesis.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85101413 650 0 Electronic excitation.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85042325 650 0 Energy transfer.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85043154 650 0 Molecular spectroscopy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85086592 650 7 Exciton theory.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/917722 650 7 Photosynthesis.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1062108 650 7 Electronic excitation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /907192 650 7 Energy transfer.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 910263 650 7 Molecular spectroscopy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1024838 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Valkūnas, Leonas.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n88672084 700 1 Grondelle, Rienk van.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n94020187 776 08 |iPrint version:|aAmerongen, Herbert van.|tPhotosynthetic excitons.|dSingapore ; River Edge, N.J. : World Scientific, ©2000|z9810232802|w(OCoLC)45133895 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=513980|zOnline eBook.
