چکیده

A bimolecular chemical reaction in solution constitutes a many-body problem. Even in the pseudounimolecular limit, when one reactant ~say, B! is in large excess over the other ~say, A! there are many B molecules which compete over binding to A. Yet, such effects are generally thought to be of little practical relevance. This impression possibly stems from the intensive study of irreversible diffusion influenced reactions,

Rigorous derivation of the long-time asymptotics for reversible binding

Using an iterative solution in Laplace-Fourier space, we supply a rigorous mathematical proof for the long-time asymptotics of reversible binding in one dimension. The asymptotic power law and its concentration dependent prefactor result from diffusional and many-body effects which, unlike for the corresponding irreversible reaction and in classical chemical kinetics, play a dominant role in sh...

Three-dimensional Simulation Veri®es Theoretical Asymptotics for Reversible Binding

We succeeded in simulating the many-particle A ‡ B 6 C reaction in three-dimensions to suciently long-times, revealing the ultimate asymptotic approach to equilibrium. The deviation from equilibrium is a t À3=2 power-law, with a concentration-dependent prefactor which agrees quantitatively with the theoretical prediction. The logarithmic derivative of the deviation from equilibrium undergoes t...

The residence probability: single molecule fluorescence correlation spectroscopy and reversible geminate recombination.

The residence probability of a freely diffusing particle within an open d-dimensional ball is calculated as a function of time, for an initial distribution that is either a spherical delta function or uniform within the sphere. The latter is equivalent to the autocorrelation function (ACF) of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) when utilizing near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM...

Excited-state reversible geminate recombination with quenching in one dimension

We obtain the exact Green function for excited-state geminate reversible dissociation with two different lifetimes and quenching in one dimension, in the absence of a potential of interaction. We consider the ground-state and irreversible reactions as special limits, and investigate the long time asymptotic behavior in comparison with that observed in three dimensions. © 1999 American Institute...

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...
