Structure of polydisperse star branched polymers grown by diffusion
ORAL
Abstract
We present a numerical algorithm to construct polydisperse star branched polymers in two and three dimensions whose morphology is fully determined by diffusion. We analyze the monomer-monomer correlation function to calculate the fractal dimension of the structures. In addition, we carry out a finite-size analysis to determine the scaling properties of the radius of gyration.
