  ABSTRACT: It is presented here a continuous time random walk model for diffusion mediated reactions with both species mobile. The random walk is carried out over an infinite homogeneouos lattice. They are calculated the probability density for the time of reaction of a pair, the reaction rate and the time evolution of the concentration of the majority species. Analytical results are obtained in the Fourier-Laplace transform representation. Known results for a fixed trap are reobtained with appropriate marginal probabilities. It is thus justified Smoluchowski’s original approximation considering the trap at a fixed position and the majority species diffusing with a coefficient sum of the individual coefficients. The results obtained are illustrated by a one dimensional model with bias.
