Abstract

A vibronic interaction model is employed for the calculation of the dynamical properties of the primary radical pair in the bacterial photosynthetic reaction center (RC). The exchange integral and the recombination rates in the singlet and triplet channels are evaluated using the same set of parameters. This set is consistent with the sequential description of the primary charge separation.
