Rotational Diffusion in a Chain of Particles
arXiv:cond-mat/0510631 · doi:10.1088/0953-8984/17/45/058
Abstract
We study the coupled rotational diffusion in a two-particle chain on the basis of a Smoluchowski equation and calculate time-correlation functions that are measurable in an experiment. This might be used to explore hydrodynamic interactions in the limit where lubrication theory is valid.
