Configurations of polymers attached to probes

We study polymers attached to spherical (circular) or paraboloidal (parabolic) probes in three (two) dimensions. Both self-avoiding and random walks are examined numerically. The behavior of a polymer of size R[subscript 0] attached to the tip of a probe with radius of curvature R, differs qualitati...
