Field dependent collision frequency of the two-dimensional driven random Lorentz gas

Chaotic Dynamics 2009-11-07 v1 Statistical Mechanics

Abstract

In the field-driven, thermostatted Lorentz gas the collision frequency increases with the magnitude of the applied field due to long-time correlations. We study this effect with computer simulations and confirm the presence of non-analytic terms in the field dependence of the collision frequency as predicted by kinetic theory.
