Initial Slope in the Zimm Model, Good Solvent

4 Initial Slope in the Zimm Model, Good Solvent We cannot use Eq. 3.211 because the conformation is not Gaussian. We need to start with Eq. 3.210. For small k, (exp[ik T (0)]) = 1. Therefore, the second term of Eq. 3.210 is 

The initial decay rate of 5 i(k, f), the negative of the initial slope of In 5 i(k, t), is summarized in Table 3.4. The table includes the result for rodlike molecules (Section 3.5).
