Interaction between two nearby diffusion-controlled reactive sites in a plane.
The complete series solution for two diffusion-controlled chemically reactive sites, each of radius a, located on an inert plane an arbitrary center-to-center distance d apart, is presented. Simple analytical forms are developed to calculate the site reaction rates in terms of da. The impact of these results on a number of important problems in chemical physics is discussed.
