✦ Synopsis


We have made simulations of the system composed of single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) surrounded by nZ9, 13, 17 cholesterol (C 27 H 46 O) molecules. The mean square displacement, radial distribution function, diffusion coefficient, rotational and translational velocity correlations functions have been calculated for several temperatures. The qualitative interpretation of dynamics of cholesterol molecule in such specific environment is presented.
