Static and dynamic properties of Polyelectrolytes — •Jens Smiatek and Friederike Schmid — Fakultät für Physik, Condensed Matter Theory, Universität Bielefeld, 33615 Bielefeld, Germany

We study the dynamics of charged macromolecules in salt solutions, taking full account of the electrostatic and the hydrodynamic interactions.

The polyelectrolyte is modeled by a simple coarse-grained bead-spring model which is embedded in free solution. All particles are simulated by Dissipative Particle Dynamics and we use the freely available software package ESPResSo.

Special interest is spent on the dynamic and static properties of polyelectrolytes like the structure factor and the single monomer displacement. All results will be carefully analyzed in the light of existing theories.
