We report the results of stochastic molecular dynamics simulations for the structural formation of charged dendrimers and dendrimer-based star polymers. The variation in the radius of gyration explains quite well recent small-angle neutron-scattering experiments for higher-generation charged dendrimers under different pH conditions. We also clarify the properties of effective interaction between dendrimers for weak and strong electrostatic couplings in an aqueous solution.
