摘要: The exact solutions of the rate equations of the n-polymer stochastic aggregation involving two types of clusters, active and passive for the kernel \dprnk=1s(ik)(s(ik)=ik) and \dsumnk=1s(ik)(s(ik)=ik), are obtained. The large-mass behaviours of the final mass distribution of the active and passive clusters have scaling-like forms, although the models exhibit different properties. Respectively, they have different decay exponents γ=\dfrac{2n+1}{2(n-1)} and γ=q+\dfrac{2n+1}{2(n-1)} for \dprnk=1}s(ik)(s(ik)=ik) and γ=\dfrac 3{2(n-1)} and γ=q+\dfrac 3{2(n-1)} for \dsumnk=1}s(ik)(s(ik)=ik), which include exponents of two-polymer stochastic aggregation. We also find that gelation is suppressed for kernel \dprnk=1s(ik)(s(ik)=ik) which is different from the deterministic aggregation.

Abstract: The exact solutions of the rate equations of the n-polymer stochastic aggregation involving two types of clusters, active and passive for the kernel $\prod_{k=1}^{n} s_{i_{k}}\left(s_{i_{k}}=i_{k}\right)$ and $\sum_{k=1}^{n} s_{i_{k}}\left(s_{i_{k}}=i_{k}\right)$, are obtained. The large-mass behaviours of the final mass distribution of the active and passive clusters have scaling-like forms, although the models exhibit different properties. Respectively, they have different decay exponents $\gamma=\frac{2 n+1}{2(n-1)}$ and $\gamma=q+\frac{2 n+1}{2(n-1)}$ for $\prod_{k=1}^{n} s_{i_{k}}\left(s_{i_{k}}=i_{k}\right)$ and $\gamma=\frac{3}{2(n-1)}$ and $\gamma=q+\frac{3}{2(n-1)}$ for$\sum_{k=1}^{n} s_{i_{k}}\left(s_{i_{k}}=i_{k}\right)$, which include exponents of two-polymer stochastic aggregation. We also find that gelation is suppressed for kernel $\prod_{k=1}^{n} s_{i_{k}}\left(s_{i_{k}}=i_{k}\right) $ which is different from the deterministic aggregation.
