Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of Polymer Molecules in Dilute Solution: Viscoelasticity, Flow Birefringence and Dielectric Loss
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the problem of diffusing a chain molecule diffusing in a viscous fluid under the influence of external forces or currents, and calculated the viscosity, birefringence of flow, and dielectric and tensile relaxation behavior explicitly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of the Phase Transition between Helix and Random Coil in Polypeptide Chains
Bruno H. Zimm,J. K. Bragg +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the transition between the helical and randomly coiled forms of a polypeptide chain is discussed by reference to a simple model that allows bonding only between each group and the third preceding.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Dimensions of Chain Molecules Containing Branches and Rings
TL;DR: In this paper, the mean square radii of various branched and ringed polymer molecules were derived under the usual assumptions regarding the statistics of chain configuration, and it was shown that the number of branches or rings can be determined from light scattering measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Scattering of Light and the Radial Distribution Function of High Polymer Solutions
TL;DR: In this paper, a radial distribution function of polymer segments in a solution of a high polymer was defined as a quantity proportional to the density of segments at a given distance from some given segment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Apparatus and Methods for Measurement and Interpretation of the Angular Variation of Light Scattering; Preliminary Results on Polystyrene Solutions
TL;DR: In this article, a photoelectric apparatus for the measurement of the angular dependence of light scattering from solutions is described and its performance is discussed, and methods of calculation for the determination of the average extension of the scattering molecules from the data are described.
