Abstract
Since the observation of long lasting oscillations in the 2D-spectra of the FMO complex in 2007 [16], the influence of coherence on the exciton dynamics in natural photosynthetic antennae, which was long considered to be of hopping-like nature sufficiently described by rate equations, is of peculiar interest in the context of artificial photosynthesis. In order to study the dynamics, sophisticated methods, which are able to describe the dissipative quantum dynamics of molecular aggregates embedded in a protein environment rather accurately, are required.
