Abstract
A stochastic simulation method is used to recover the scaling behavior and the complete time evolution of an experimental system of colloida l aggregation of polystyrene particles under both diffusion-limited ag gregation and reaction-limited aggregation conditions. Several hypothe ses about the underlying kinetics and the scaling properties of the ag gregation process axe tested by comparing numerical with experimental results.
