Vibronic absorption spectra of molecular aggregates consisting of up to N = 9 monomer units are calculated employing methods of time-dependent quantum mechanics. Taking one vibrational degree of freedom for each monomer into account and treating one-exciton excited electronic states leads to a problem with N vibrations and N electronically coupled states. The demanding quantum propagation is carried out within the multiconfiguration time-depended Hartree method (MCTDH). Spectral features of and population transfer in the aggregates are analyzed as a function of the aggregate size and the strength of the electronic coupling. With a model for oligomers of perylene bisimides, it is shown how measured temperature-dependent absorption spectra correlate with the aggregate size. Furthermore, the exciton localization and dynamics in these aggregates are investigated.
