Table 1. Average site energies of the three not equivalent BChls and the two largest couplings within the 18-meric ring. Here V1αβ and V2αβ indicate the coupling between adjacent BChls belonging to chains of different units (inter-chain), and of the same unit (intra-chain), respectively. All values (in cm–1) are reported together with the relative standard deviations computed along 50 frames of the MD trajectories.
