Notes: A mathematical model to relate order and rotational motion in lipid hydrocarbon chains in biological membranes is proposed. Schrödinger equations with suitable potential functions for C—C rotations in lipid hydrocarbons chains have been solved to obtain wave functions characterizing these motions. For a free chain a threefold potential function has been assumed. The effect of collisions between neighboring chains in a membrane is considered by including another term (δ function) in the potential function.
