Abstract
A brief account of the applications of light scattering spectroscopy to the study of the dynamic properties of dilute macromolecular solutions is presented. In experiments of this type, light is scattered by thermal fluctuations of the molecules in solution about equilibrium. When the circumstances permit, light scattering may be used to study translational diffusion, rotational diffusion, intramolecular structural relaxation processes, and chemical reaction rate constants of macromolecules in dilute solution.
