چکیده

The kinetics of a diffusing particle near a reversible trap may be described by an extension of the Feynman-Kac equation to the case of reversible binding, which can occur within a finite reaction sphere. We obtain the Green's function solution for the Laplace transform of this equation when the particle is initially either bound or unbound. We study the solution in the time-domain by either inverting the Laplace transform numerically or propagating the partial differential equation in the time-domain. We show that integrals of this solution over the reaction sphere agree with previously obtained solutions.

Comparison of Alternate Approaches for Reversible Geminate Recombination

This work compares various models for geminate reversible diffusion influenced reactions. The commonly utilized contact reactivity model (an extension of the Collins-Kimball radiation boundary condition) is augmented here by a volume reactivity model, which extends the celebrated Feynman-Kac equation for irreversible depletion within a reaction sphere. We obtain the exact analytic solution in L...

Unified path integral approach to theories of diffusion-influenced reactions.

Building on mathematical similarities between quantum mechanics and theories of diffusion-influenced reactions, we develop a general approach for computational modeling of diffusion-influenced reactions that is capable of capturing not only the classical Smoluchowski picture but also alternative theories, as is here exemplified by a volume reactivity model. In particular, we prove the path deco...

Exact solution of the excited-state geminate A*+B <==> C*+D reaction with two different lifetimes and quenching.

The authors obtain, in the Laplace transform space, the exact analytic solution for the Green function and survival probabilities for the excited-state diffusion-influenced reversible geminate reaction, A*+B <==> C*+D, with two different lifetimes and in the presence of an added quenching process. This extends a previous investigation by Popov and Agmon [J. Chem. Phys. 117, 5770 (2002)] of the ...

Exact Green's function of the reversible ABCD reaction in two space dimensions

We derive an exact expression for the Green’s functions in the time domain of the reversible diffusion-influenced ABCD reaction A+B ↔ C +D in two space dimensions. Furthermore, we calculate the corresponding survival and reaction probabilities. The obtained expressions should prove useful for the study of reversible membrane-bound reactions in cell biology and can serve as a useful ingredient o...
