We investigate the condensation-driven aggregation model that we recently proposed whereby an initial ensemble of chemically identical Brownian particles are continuously growing by condensation and at the same time undergo aggregation upon collision. We solved the model exactly by using scaling theory for the case when a particle, say of size x , grows by an amount alphax over the time it takes to collide with another particle of any size. It is shown that the particle size spectra exhibit… Expand

The numerical results indicate the presence of an intermediate-time regime of behavior in coagulation kinetics, which is characterized by effective exponents whose values are consistent with scaling, and new fluctuation-controlled kinetic behavior below an upper critical dimension equal to 2 is reported.
