Coarse-grained soft-clusters remain non-diffusing in the melt state

Melts of 3-dimensional dendritic beads-springs, namely coarse-grained soft-clusters, are studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The goal is to elucidate the unique dynamics of giant molecules, and generally speaking, 3-dimensional architectured polymers. When constituted by more than the critica...
