Rotational Diffusion under Spatial Restrictions — •Heidrun Gleißberg, Patrick Ilg, and Siegfried Hess — TU Berlin

In Order to study the influence of confining walls on the rotational dynamics of a molecule with emphasis on the rotational diffusion coefficient a simple model is proposed.

In particular, two approaches are considered. The first one employs a recently introduced time reversible thermostat for rotational motion [1]. The other utilizes the irreversible Langevin equation.

Priority is given to the comparision of numerical results obtained via these strategies for a molecule in a channel.
