Single file dynamics in soft materials

A Taloni, O Flomenbom, R Castañeda-Priego… - Soft Matter, 2017 - pubs.rsc.org
The term single file (SF) dynamics refers to the motion of an assembly of particles through a
channel with cross-sections comparable to the particles' diameter. Single file diffusion (SFD) …

Brownian gyrator: A minimal heat engine on the nanoscale

R Filliger, P Reimann - Physical review letters, 2007 - APS
A Brownian particle moving in the vicinity of a generic potential minimum under the influence
of dissipation and thermal noise from two different heat baths is shown to act as a minimal …

Diffusion of finite-sized hard-core interacting particles in a one-dimensional box: tagged particle dynamics

L Lizana, T Ambjörnsson - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2009 - APS
We solve a nonequilibrium statistical-mechanics problem exactly, namely, the single-file
dynamics of N hard-core interacting particles (the particles cannot pass each other) of size Δ …

Weak Disorder Strongly Improves the Selective Enhancement of Diffusion<? format?> in a Tilted Periodic Potential

P Reimann, R Eichhorn - Physical review letters, 2008 - APS
The diffusion of an overdamped Brownian particle in a tilted periodic potential is known to
exhibit a pronounced enhancement over the free thermal diffusion within a small interval of …

Single-file diffusion of particles with long-range interactions: Damping and finite-size effects

JB Delfau, C Coste, M Saint Jean - … Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2011 - APS
We study the single file diffusion of a cyclic chain of particles that cannot cross each other, in
a thermal bath, with long-ranged interactions and arbitrary damping. We present simulations …

Single-file diffusion of macroscopic charged particles

C Coste, JB Delfau, C Even, M Saint Jean - Physical Review E—Statistical …, 2010 - APS
In this paper, we study a macroscopic system of electrically interacting metallic beads
organized as a sequence along an annulus. A random mechanical shaking mimics the …

Single-file diffusion of interacting particles in a finite-sized channel

JB Delfau, C Coste, C Even, M Saint Jean - Physical Review E—Statistical …, 2010 - APS
We study the dynamics of charged macroscopic particles (millimetric steel balls) confined in
a linear channel of finite length, sufficiently narrow to avoid particles crossing. We show that …

On single-file and less dense processes

O Flomenbom, A Taloni - Europhysics Letters, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
The diffusion process of N hard rods in a 1D interval of length is studied using scaling

Diffusion enhancement and autoparametric resonance

J Maddi, C Coste, M Saint Jean - Physical Review E, 2024 - APS
The possibility of an autoparametric resonance in an isolated many-particle system induces
a specific behavior of the particles in the presence of thermal noise. In particular, the …
