Rotational relaxation time of the end-to-end vector, t _rot , vs. the center-of-mass diffusion coefficient D _tr for multi-bead particles of different sizes N. With HI the expected scaling of a sphere of equivalent radius was reproduced, whereas without HI rotation was too fast. When the single bead diffusion coefficients were rescaled for the correct D_tr at each N individually (open squares), τ_rot also scaled as but was still too fast by a factor of about five.
