arXiv:0710.5146

Abstract

Theoretical derivation and numerical confirmation are provided for the scaling of pore-blockade times as $N^{2 + ν}$ for unbiased translocation in two and three dimensions, with $N$ as the polymer length and $ν$ as the Flory exponent of the polymer. The polymer performs Rouse dynamics.
