Density distribution functions of random sequential adsorption on a [formula omitted] lattice

Abstract

Random sequential adsorption (RSA) is an irreversible random deposition process with short range exclusion interaction. It is shown that the distribution function of the occupation densities at the jamming limit of a RSA process on a 2×n lattice converges for n→∞ to a Gaussian around an average density. The second moment decreases like 1∕n.
