6. However, the sentence on p 10502 in ref 3, "The thermally averaged superradiance is 1.15 at 77 K (experiments showed a value of 1.16)." indicates that their simulation shows mat the excitonic interactions between the pigments are not responsible for nonphotochemical quenching in LHCII, but in fact lead to an increase of the fluorescence.
