Abstract
A numerical solution and analytic approximation are obtained for the mean-field continuum equations corresponding to diffusion-controlled aggregation. For d>2 an asymptotic solution is found with the density of the cluster varying as the inverse radius, which suggests a Hausdorff dimension D=d−1.
