- Radius of gyration : For a macromolecule composed of mass elements, of masses , =1,2,…,, located at fixed distances from the centre of mass, the radius of gyration is the square-root of the mass average of over all mass elements, i.e.,
:
Note: The mass elements are usually taken as the masses of the skeletal groups constituting the macromolecule, e.g., –CH2– in poly. (en)
