title: Bent membrane model of the purple membrane. Theoretical details and further experimental data.
abstract: Theoretical treatment of the bent membrane model of purple membrane is given. Beside the derivation of the formulae, the results of the numerical calculations concerning the angle dependence of the light scattering changes are presented. The paper contains also experimental data on the scattering changes during the photocycle at several scattering angles, which are in good accordance with the theory.
