Abstract— Kinetics have been determined for the decay of the terminal phototransients M(410) and O(660) and the reappearance of the BR(570) chromophore in flash‐photolyzed aqueous suspensions of light‐adapted purple membrane fragments from Halobacterium halobium . The results were fitted to a linear model of
