Thermodynamics and Kinetics of a Three-Arm Star Polymer Translocating through a Nanopore
Bhavesh R. Sarode, Harshwardhan H. Katkar
In this work, voltage-driven translocation of uniformly charged long linear and three-arm star polymers through narrow nanopores is investigated. Langevin dynamics simulation is pe…

Free Energy and Diffusivity in the Fokker-Planck Theory of Polymer Translocation
Bhavesh R. Sarode, Harshwardhan H. Katkar
We revisit the Fokker-Planck based theory of driven polymer translocation through a narrow nanopore. A bead-spring model of a uniformly charged polyelectrolyte chain translocating…

Role of Non-Equilibrium Conformations on Driven Polymer Translocation
Harshwardhan H. Katkar, Murugappan Muthukumar
One of the major theoretical methods in understanding polymer translocation through a nanopore is the Fokker-Planck formalism based on the assumption of quasi-equilibrium of polyme…
