Abstract
We examine the Haken-Reineker-Strobl model of relaxation processes for a class of two-site systems. We permit the stochastic processes used to simulate reservoir noise in the model to be complex Hermitean, inst ead of purely real. We demonstrate in a specific case that this can op en the possibility of identifying the precise meaning of the decay rat e constants obtained from fluorescence anisotropy measurements.
