We discuss the conformations of linear polyions assuming that a) the corresponding uncharged chain is flexible ; b) electrostatic forces dominate the monomer-monomer interactions; c) no salt is added. 1) For the dilute case (non overlapping chains) correcting a recent self-consistent calculation by Richmond [1a], we find an overall polyion size R = Nd which is a linear function of the polymerization index N in agreement with the early work of Hermans and Overbeek, [1b], Kuhn, Kunzle, and Katchalsky [1c]. 2) There is a range of very low concentration c (c** c**) : here we expect that the polyions build up a 3-dimensional periodic lattice ; however, the detection of such an extremely dilute lattice appears difficult. 3) Practically all expe...
