Probability distribution of ring polymer extension. Experimental data show ring polymers (red bars) in background solutions of semidilute linear polymers at concentrations of 0.1 c* and 1.0 c* and accumulated fluid strains of ϵ = 10, ϵ = 15, ϵ = 20, ϵ = 25. Molecular ensembles consist of a n = 24, b n = 25, c n = 38, and d n = 38 molecules. Data for 1.0 c* linear polymers (gray bars) are from Hsiao et al.33. Source data are provided as a Source Data file
