The form factor of H-comb polymers.
A Monte Carlo pivot algorithm is employed to investigate the form factor of continuum, tangent hard sphere H-comb polymers in both the ideal and excluded volume regimes. The simulated form factors for 241 and 931 "bead" ideal H-combs are essentially the same. The results for these polymers are in excellent agreement with the theoretical prediction. There is only a slight difference in the form factor between the ideal and excluded volume regimes at larger values of distance.
