Abstract
Generalization of the Rouse model without any use of the postulates concerning the Gaussian distribution of the vector connecting the ends of segments is advanced. In the initial (in general, nonlinear) Langevin equations, self-averaging over continuous fragments of a macromolecule naturally defines a linear term for the tagged chain, and this term differs from the entropy term of the classical Rouse model only by the numerical coefficient....
