Theoretical Polymer Density Map

Theoretical Polymer Density Map

Polymers to Polyhedra

From Physical Review Focus, 19 June 2006

Adjusting the length and proportion of two kinds of polymer projecting from a minuscule bead would lead to a variety of geometric shapes, such as the one shown in this flattened density map of a spherical surface, according to computer simulations.
