Finite-size corrections for confined polymers in the extended de Gennes regime

T. St Clere Smithe, V. Iarko, A. Muralidhar +3

Theoretical results for the extension of a polymer confined to a channel are usually derived in the limit of infinite contour length. But experimental studies and simulations of DN…

Scaling regimes of a semi-flexible polymer in a rectangular channel

E. Werner, B. Mehlig

We derive scaling relations for the extension statistics and the confinement free energy for a semi-flexible polymer confined to a channel with a rectangular cross-section. Our mot…

Confined polymers in the extended de Gennes regime

E. Werner, B. Mehlig

We show that the problem of describing the conformations of a semiflexible polymer confined to a channel can be mapped onto an exactly solvable model in the so-called extended de G…

Monomer distributions and intra-chain collisions of a polymer confined to a channel

E. Werner, F. Westerlund, J. O. Tegenfeldt +1

We study the conformations of a self-avoiding polymer confined to a channel by computing the cross-sectional distributions of the positions of its monomers. By means of Monte-Carlo…

Orientational correlations in confined DNA

E. Werner, F. Persson, F. Westerlund +2

We study how the orientational correlations of DNA confined to nanochannels depend on the channel diameter D by means of Monte Carlo simulations and a mean-field theory. This theor…
