Abstract
The influence of spatial fluctuations in the density of monomeric units on the long-time kinetics of reversible coagulation is investigated. It is shown that the long-time approach to the equilibrium cluster size distribution is determined by relaxation of the spatial fluctuation spectrum and described by a power-law dependence.Keywords
