Diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) assumes that particles perform pure random walk at a finite temperature and aggregate when they come close enough and stick together. Although it is well known that DLA in two dimensions results in a…

Models of fractal growth commonly consider particles diffusing in a medium and that stick irreversibly to the forming aggregate when making contact for the first time. As shown by the well-known diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) model and…

Diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) is a well studied phenomenon in which diffusing particles cumulatively aggregate on a starting fixed seed point, forming a pattern which is fractal in structure. Here we report an interesting DLA process…

Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) has served for forty years as a paradigmatic example for the creation of fractal growth patterns. In spite of thousands of references no exact result for the fractal dimension $D$ of DLA is known. In this…

In analogy to recent results on non-universal roughening in surface growth [Lam and Sander, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 69}, 3338 (1992)], we propose a variant of diffusion-limited aggregation ($DLA$) in which the radii of the particles are…
