Abstract: The conformational properties of a semiflexible polymer chain, anchored at one end in a uniform force field, are studied in a simple two-dimensional model. Recursion relations are derived for the partition function and then iterated numerically. We calculate the angular fluctuations of the polymer about the direction of the force field and the average polymer configuration as functions of the bending rigidity, chain length, chain orientation at the anchoring point. and field strength.
