We find, moreover, that the fractal dimension of critical branched polymers in 2-D is independent of the presence of a random environment, and explore possible explanations for these strange results. We also report that when there are no impurities the critical branching probability in 3-D is bc=3.34e-4 +- 0.16e-4.4 pages, 3 figuresStatistical MechanicsThe Strange Behavior of Critical Branched Polymerstext
