On the reaction-diffusion master equation in the microscopic limit

Posted on By admin No Comments on On the reaction-diffusion master equation in the microscopic limit

The RDME will break down in the limit of vanishing voxel sizes, in the sense that contributions from bimolecular reactions will be lost. The problem sets on earlier (for larger voxels), the more diffusion limited the reaction is. This is a problem that has attracted a lot of interest since it was pointed out by…

Multiscale and hybrid algorithms for stochastic chemical kinetics

Posted on By admin No Comments on Multiscale and hybrid algorithms for stochastic chemical kinetics

Many biochemical network models display scale separation with respect to reaction rates and/or molecular copy numbers. Depending on the type of question under study, different models are best suited to simulate the system. For some parts of the system, a macroscopic model might be appropriate. For other parts, a mesoscopic model may provide additional insight…
