Barrier effect. Reaction rate dp/dt scaled by (1 − p)2eβΔU, for different values of energy barrier, as indicated. For each βΔU, symbols are mean ± SEM of the results of 40 independent simulation runs. The solid line is the description of the data in the case without barrier, using dp/dt = koverall(1 − p)2, with koverall = (1/kc + 1/kdD)−1, where D is the p-dependent average diffusion coefficient of a particle in the system (see next Fig. 4a)
