Nuts and Bolts of Excitation Energy Migration and Energy Transfer,le technique in many biological and biophysical fields. Our understanding of photosynthesis is tightly coupled to our understanding of the transfer of captured energy from the absorption of photons, and following the energy flow through the complex maize of chemical reactions utilizing this energy.

Transfer and Trapping of Excitations in Plant Photosystems, models are now available that allow detailed modeling of their spectroscopic and energy transfer properties. In the core of Photosystem I the energy transfer process is fast, and is characterized by a first passage time of less than 10 ps. On a similar time scale the excitation energy may be locali

This double hit three-state trapping model (TSTM) suggests that closing of the photosynthetic reaction center of PS II requires at least two successive trapping events. It emphasizes that each of the primary and secondary acceptor
