Abstract

Terahertz density fluctuations in DNA have been recognized to be associated with biological function of DNA and widely studied both experimentally and theoretically. In the present work, we investigate numerically a new model for the terahertz dynamics of density fluctuations in DNA, proposed earlier. This model considers the length scales corresponding to wave numbers up to the position of the maximum of the static structure factor and allows to reflect structural effects caused by the dependence of the static structure factor on wave number. We study the parametric dependencies of the model to elucidate the effect of dlocalization of the dynamics of density fluctuations caused by structural effects.
