In the diffusive transport of waves in three dimensional media, there should be a phase transition with increasing disorder to a state where no transport occurs. This transition was first discussed by Anderson in 1958 in the context of the…
We investigate a single particle on a 3-dimensional, cubic lattice with a random on-site potential (3D Anderson model). We concretely address the question whether or not the dynamics of the particle is in full accord with the diffusion…
