Minimum growth probability of diffusion-limited aggregates

Abstract
We calculate the minimum growth probability for diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) as a function of the cluster mass M, and find a novel singularity of the form -lnpmin(M)∼(lnM)y with y≊2. We interpret this result in terms of a simple model for DLA structure, which is characterized by a hierarchy of self-similar voids separated by channels whose diameter increases slower than the cluster diameter.
