Description
Motion of a single nonintersecting chain with nearest-neighbor attractive interactions is simulated on a three-dimensional cubic lattice using a Monte Carlo method. The free-draining exponent of the terminal relation time is tauroughly-equalN/sup 2.17/ in the strong excluded-volume region and tends to tauroughly-equalN2 at the THETA point. The translational diffusion constant scales as Droughly-equalN/sup -1/ at all temperatures. Results are in agreement with theoretical dynamical exponents in the free-draining limit
