Dynamic scattering of light by aqueous micellar polyelectrolyte solutions differing in the degree of polymerization and concentration has been studied. The shape of the polymer-micellar complexes formed is established to be spherical, and their size to depend on the degree of polymerization and concentration of the polyelectrolyte. At high degrees of polymerization of the polyelectrolyte, two types of complexes differing in average size and size distribution variance are observed.
