We propose a method to measure the subdiffusion parameter $\alpha$ and subdiffusion coefficient $D_{\alpha}$ which are defined by means of the relation $<x^2> =\frac{2D_\alpha} {\Gamma(1+\alpha)} t^\alpha$ where $<x^2>$ denotes a mean…

The relation between relaxation and diffusion is investigated in a Hamiltonian system of globally coupled rotators. Diffusion is anomalous if and only if the system is going towards equilibrium. The anomaly in diffusion is not anomalous…
Much effort has been put into developing theories for dense fluids, as a result of these efforts many theories work for a certain type of particle or in a certain concentration regime. Rosenfeld proposed a dependence of the self-diffusion…
The dynamics of a freely diffusing particle in a two-dimensional channel with cross sectional area $A(x)$, can be effectively described by a one-dimensional diffusion equation under the action of a potential of mean force $U(x)=-k_BT\ln…
We study the diffusion on an annealed disordered lattice with a local dynamical reorganization of bonds. We show that the typical rearrangement time depends on the renewal rate like $t_r \sim \tau^{\alpha}$ with $\alpha \neq 1$. This…
