Abstract
A special potential for interaction between polymer chain units, whose energy decreases with increasing distance s between the units as s –1, was introduced for the first time. According to Monte Carlo simulation, interactions of this type result in the formation of a globule with an equilibrium packing of domains in space. The radius of gyration of a chain segment in these globules varies with segment length according to the scaling law typical of crumpled globules.
