A molecular relay race: sequential first-passage events to the terminal reaction centre in a cascade of diffusion controlled processes

We consider a sequential cascade of molecular first-reaction events towards a terminal reaction centre in which each reaction step is controlled by diffusive motion of the particles. The model studied here represents a typical reaction setting encountered in diverse molecular biology systems, in whi...
