Overview

abstract

• The intermediate-time tracer-diffusion properties of a nonspherical Brownian particles that interacts with a suspension of spherical particles were studied. The investigations were conducted in terms of an idealized but nontrivial model system for which the predictions of the generalized Langevin equation approach to tracer diffusion can be calculated, and compared with the results of a computer simulation experiment. The nonspherical Brownian particle of the model system is represented by a linear array of NT (= 2 or 3) spherical particles with nearest neighbor separation ΔL, rigidly bound to each other by imaginary forces.
