We derive the time-evolution equation that describes the Brownian motion of labeled individual tracer particles in a simple model atomic liquid (i.e., a system of $N$ particles whose motion is governed by Newton's second law, and…

Efficiency of search for randomly distributed targets is a prominent problem in many branches of the sciences. For the stochastic process of L\'evy walks, a specific range of optimal efficiencies was suggested under variation of search…
