Abstract

We study the dependence of D, a quantity that has previously been associated with the fractal dimension of an atomic trajectory, on the scale on which it is measured. Single-particle and relative trajectories are generated by molecular-dynamics simulations of Lennard-Jones atoms permanently trapped in a spherical pore. Transient trapping is studied with a generalized Langevin model of dynamics. Confinement of trajectories allows D to exceed 2; in the case of permanent trapping, D diverges.
