In this theoretical work, we analyse the kinetics of charge recombination reaction after a light excitation of the Reaction Centres extracted from the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides and reconstituted in small unilamellar phospholipid vesicles. Due to the compartmentalized nature of liposomes, vesicles may exhibit a random distribution of both ubiquinone molecules and the Reaction Centre protein complexes that can produce significant differences on the local concentrations from the average expected values. Moreover, since the amount of reacting species is very low in compartmentalized lipid systems the stochastic approach is more suitable to unveil deviations of the average time behaviour of vesicles from the deterministic time evolution.

A computational approach, based on molecular dynamics simulations and quantum-chemical calculations, is proposed for modelling the photo-induced charge separation and the kinetics of the subsequent charge recombination (CR) processes in solution.
