✦ Synopsis

We have studied the fractal behavior in classical (MD) trajectories of liquid Nz and in continuous random walks using the "box counting method". For liquid N2, analysis of trajectories extending over a time of 60 ps gives a fractal dimension D = 1.67, which is similar to previously results for liquid Ar. We fmd that for a conth~uous random walk with a comparably small number of mean-free-path lengths the fractal dimension also falls below the theoretical value of two.

A new method of studying orientational correlations in liquids of linear molecules is presented and applied to Nz, Fl, Cl,, Br,, Is, CO\* and C& near their triple points. The method is based on the subdivision of the total angular space of a pair of molecules into a complete set of disjoint classes

The Brownian motion of one end of an oligopeptide molecule relative to its other end was previously studied by the measurement of non-radiative energy transfer between chromophores attached to the molecular ends, and was found to conform to a model which describes this motion as a diffusional proces
