The number of excitational jumps over a grid before capture by a trap is calculated for cylindrical lattices of different dimensions modeling a light-collecting pigment matrix. It is shown that the influence of the form of the lattice on the number of excitational jumps before capture by a trap is most clearly expressed when the lattice dimensions are not very large (with M < 100 light collectors). The importance of this conclusion is clear in that the number of light collectors is no more than 50 in some investigations of pigment-protein complexes.
