Title |
On the non-Gaussianity of chain motion in unentangled polymer melts |
Date |
2001 |
Description |
We have investigated chain dynamics of an unentangled polybutadiene melt via molecular dynamics simulations and neutron spin echo experiments. Good short-time statistics allows for the first experimental confirmation of subdiffusive motion of polymer chains for times less than the Rouse time (T R) confirming behavior in this regime observed in simulations. |
