End-to-end distribution function for dilute polymers

Abstract

We study the end-to-end distribution function for dilute polymers. We present a computation to order $O({\epsilon }^2)$, $\epsilon =4-d$, and discuss in detail its asymptotic behaviour for small and large distances. The theoretical predictions are compared with Monte Carlo results, finding good agreement.
