where rR is the Rouse time - the longest time in the relaxations spectrum - and W is the<br />

elementary Rouse rate . The mode conelation function for the Rouse modes is obtained as<br />

Thereby xp is the a-component of the number p normal mode and xô is the centre of mass<br />

coordinate .<br />

in Eq.[15 .14] we use the tact that the mean square displacement of the centre of mass<br />

provides the diffusion constant. For the special case of the self conelation function (n - m)<br />

Ar,,, (t) reveals the mean square displacement of a polymer segment. We obtain<br />

3kTt 11/2<br />

In contrast to normal diffusion Ar,2, does not grow linearly, but wich the square route oftime .<br />

For the translational diffusion coefficient DR =kBT/N;o is obtained. DR is inversely<br />

proportional to the number of friction performing segments .<br />
