Gaussian Chain Model

The Gaussian Chain Model is a theoretical polymer chain model in polymer conformation that assumes the end-to-end vector follows a Gaussian distribution, distinguishing it from other chain models by its reliance on continuous, random-walk statistics to describe the spatial configuration of ideal polymer chains.
