“…The chromophore orientation is represented by two order parameters ((P2(cOs 6a)) and (P2(cos Oe))) and three correlation functions, CO, C1, and C2, which correspond in the URD model to the residual anisotropy and the amplitudes of the e-Dt and e4Dt exponential decay terms, respectively. There is a large body of theoretical modeling and experimental data describing fluorescence in oriented systems, using different experimental geometries (e.g., Van der Meer et al, 1982;Zannoni et al, 1983;Van der Heide et al, 1994;Burghardt and Ajtai, 1994). Whereas some similar approaches have expanded C0, Cl, and C2 in terms of orientational order parameters (e.g., Van der Meer et al, 1982), we are primarily interested in these correlation functions because of their appearance in the URD model.…”
