Comparison of Conformational Phase Behavior for Flexible and Semiflexible Polymers

We employ the recently introduced generalized microcanonical inflection point method for the statistical analysis of phase transitions in flexible and semiflexible polymers and study the impact of the bending stiffness upon the character and order of transitions between random-coil, globules, and ps...
