Simulation of a coarse-grained Rouse polymer with excluded volume. a Schematic illustration of a coarse-grained Rouse polymer with excluded volume. b Mean MSD of a Rouse polymer with excluded volume (green) including a linear fit with slope α = 0.57 (black line). Dotted lines show the slopes corresponding to 0.5 and 0.6. c, d Histogram of MSD exponents from the model, displaying a single Gaussian fit (solid lines) and kernel density estimate of probability density of individual MSD exponents (colored circles) in 3D (c) and 2D projection (d). The means and standard deviations are indicated
