  Properties of 1,4-\textit{trans} poly (isoprene) at ambient conditions are
determined by simulations on two length scales based on two different models: a
full-atomistic and a mesoscopic one. The models are linked via a mapping scheme
such that one mesoscopic bead represents one chemical repeat unit. Melts as
well as solutions of several chain lengths were investigated and mapped
individually to the meso-scale. The resulting models are compared to each
other. The meso-scale models could be simulated over a large variety of chain
lengths and time-scales relevant for experimental comparison. Concerning static
properties, we determined the persistence length of our systems and the scaling
behavior of the radius of gyration. The latter was compared to experiments and
the agreement is satisfactory. Furthermore, we find deviations from Rouse
dynamics at all chain lengths at ambient conditions.
