We consider mixtures of oppositely driven particles, showing that their non-equilibrium steady states form lanes parallel to the drive, which coexist with transient jammed clusters where particles are temporarily immobilised. We analyse the…
We study a model in which particles interact with short-ranged attractive and long-ranged repulsive interactions, in an attempt to model the equilibrium cluster phase recently discovered in sterically stabilized colloidal systems in the…

Confinement can have a considerable effect on the behavior of particle systems, and is therefore an effective way to discover new phenomena. A notable example is a system of identical bosons at low temperature under an external field…

A particle driven by an external force in a molecular crowding environment - a quiescent bath of other particles, makes their spatial distribution inhomogeneous: the bath particles accumulate in front of the biased particle (BP) and are…
We study multicomponent liquids by increasing the mass of $15\%$ of the particles in a binary Kob-Andersen model. We find that the heavy particles have dual effects on the lighter particles. At higher temperatures, there is a significant…
