57. The rates of structural relaxation and the stabilization energies have been assumed to be equal for all sites in the target area P, so the higher moments of the P and p distributions are, therefore, not substantially changed in this equilibration process and have similar shapes.

60. β to be rather independent of the segmental site-energies in the electronic DOS. This approach seems to be realized, as indicated by the spectral invariance of the Raman modes associated to the ground-state vibrons. Since they correspond to C-C ring stretching and C-H ring bending modes, they are, only unsubstantially, affected by the variation of conjugation length in oligomeric bistilbene homologs.
