## Abstract A general matrix formula is proposed for the weightβaverage molecular weights of the polymer systems formed through simultaneous scission, branching and crosslinking of __N__ types of chains, assuming the chain connection statistics are Markovian. For the polymerization systems in which

## Abstract The matrix formula developed in Part 1 of this series is applied to describe the molecular weight development during freeβradical (co)polymerization. All of the required probabilistic parameters are expressed in terms of the kinetic rate constants and pertinent concentrations. In freeβr
## Abstract A Monte Carlo model for the polymerization of ethylene with longβchain branch formation using dualβsite catalyst systems was developed. It was shown that, unlike singleβsite catalyst systems, a detailed knowledge of the specifics of catalyst sites and reactor conditions is essential to
## Abstract **Summary:** The exponential attrition of configurational bias Monte Carlo for long chains can be reduced to almost quadratic by a simple modification of the basic move. Each trial move begins on the side of the remaining sub chain opposite to the cut location. This type of move is akin
