Thermally activated processes in polymer dynamics.
Jumps between neighboring minima in the energy landscape of both homopolymeric and heteropolymeric chains are numerically investigated by determining the average escape time from different valleys. The numerical results are compared to the theoretical expression derived by Langer [J.S. Langer, Ann. Phys. (N.Y.) 54, 258 (1969)] with reference to a 2N-dimensional space. Our simulations indicate t...
متن کاملThermally activated interface motion in a disordered ferromagnet
We investigate interface motion in disordered ferromagnets by means of Monte Carlo simulations. For small temperatures and driving fields a so-called creep regime is found and the interface velocity obeys an Arrhenius law. We analyze the corresponding energy barrier as well as the field and temperature dependence of the prefactor.
متن کاملNonergodic activated kinetics in polar media.
A theoretical formulation is developed for the activated kinetics when some subset of nuclear modes of the thermal bath is slower than the reaction and ergodicity of the thermal bath is not maintained. Nonergodic free energy profiles along the reaction coordinate are constructed by using restricted canonical ensembles with the phase space available to the system found by solving a self-consiste...
متن کاملViscosity in disordered media
The paper addresses the properties of glassforming melts in an attempt to predict the dependence of viscosity on temperature and on pressure. A review on the main viscosity models (free volume model, the Adam and Gibbs model etc.) is given. It is demonstrated that the activation energy can be expressed through the glass-transition temperature Tg. The main attention is concentrated on the jump f...
