| Abstract: | The low frequency dynamics has been
investigated by using an elastic body approximation for a spherical virus with
free surface. The frequencies for spheroidal mode are obtained in terms of
their eigen values. The effect of aqueous surrounding medium is also observed
by incorporating the acoustic impedance factor. The damping time, frequency and
quality factor are evaluated for a virus-medium system. |
