## Abstract Polymer entanglements lead to complicated topological constraints and interactions between neighboring chains in a dense solution or melt. Entanglements can be treated in a mean field approach, within the famous reptation model, since they effectively confine each individual chain in a

## Abstract The tube diameter in the reptation model is the distance between a given chain segment and its nearest segment in adjacent chains. This dimention is thus related to the cross‐sectional area of polymer chains and the nearest approach among chains, without effects of thermal fluctuation a
