We apply a quantum‐mechanical theory of rate processes to treat the recombination of ligands to haeme proteins such as myoglobin. Emphasis is placed on the effect of temperature in the low‐temperature regime. We present a theory of time‐resolved spectra pertaining to protein dynamics. We emphasize the analysis of the entire spectrum rather than spectral shifts as a function of time.
