Segment Motion in the Reptation Model of Polymer Dynamics. I. Analytical Investigation
U. Ebert, L. Schäfer, A. Baumgärtner
We analyze the motion of individual beads of a polymer chain using a discrete version of De Gennes' reptation model that describes the motion of a polymer through an ordered lattic…

Segment Motion in the Reptation Model of Polymer Dynamics. II. Simulations
A. Baumgärtner, U. Ebert, L. Schäfer
We present simulation data for the motion of a polymer chain through a regular lattice of impenetrable obstacles (Evans-Edwards model). Chain lengths range from N=20 to N=640, and…

Short Time Behavior in De Gennes' Reptation Model
Ute Ebert, Artur Baumgärtner, Lothar Schäfer
To establish a standard for the distinction of reptation from other modes of polymer diffusion, we analytically and numerically study the displacement of the central bead of a chai…
