Abstract
Brownian trajectories, obtained from molecular dynamics simulations of two-dimensional systems with inverse power-law potentials, exhibit fractal behaviour. The fractal dimensionality D goes to two asymptotically. The approach to the asymptotic value depends on the thermodynamic state of the system. Experiments are proposed to verify the authors' predictions for the behaviour of D.
