Fluids of semiflexible ring polymers: effective potentials and clustering

We present a computational investigation of the structural properties of a fluid of semiflexible ring polymers. Stiffness is introduced by implementing intramolecular barriers. Because of these barriers, shrinkage of the rings is energetically unfavourable, and the ring size can exhibit a non-monoto...
