Probability of loops formation in star polymers in long range correlated disorder

Soft Condensed Matter 2017-10-04 v1

Abstract

We analyze the statistics of loops formation in ff-branched star polymers in an environment with structural defects, correlated at large distances rr according to a power law ra\sim r^{-a}. Applying the direct polymer renormalization approach, we found the values of the set of universal exponents, governing the scaling of probabilities of various types of loops in macromolecules.
