Photosynthesis and quantum mechanical transport processes — •Dominic Wörner and Jörg Evers — Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik, Heidelberg, Germany

Recent experimental results on quantum effects in photosynthetic units motivate the study of quantum mechanical transport processes, in particular also under the influence of decoherence. Here, we present results on such transport models. In particular, we focus on the evolution of correlations throughout the transport and on possible implementations of biologically relevant transport configurations in light scattering setups accessible in the lab.
