In non-classical linear transport the chord length distribution between collisions is non-exponential and attenuation does not respect Beer's law. Generalized radiative transfer (GRT) extends the classical theory to account for such…

On contrary to the customary thought, the well-known ``lemma'' that the distribution function of a collisionless Boltzmann gas keeps invariant along a molecule's path represents not the strength but the weakness of the standard theory. One…
Diffusive transport of a particle in spatially correlated random energy landscape having exponential density of states has been considered. We exactly calculate the diffusivity in the nondispersive quasi-equilibrium transport regime and…
Using the semiclassical Boltzmann transport theory, we analytically consider dc charge transport in gapless electron-hole (both chiral and non-chiral) systems in the presence of resistive scattering due to static disorder arising from…
Non-Gaussian shapes, despite a linear form of the mean-squared displacement, have been observed for the displacement distribution in a large range of diffusive systems. Stochastic models for such "Brownian yet non-Gaussian" diffusion will…
The transport equation of active motion is generalised to consider time-fractional dynamics for describing the anomalous diffusion of self-propelled particles observed in many different systems. In the present study, we consider an…
Anomalous diffusion or, more generally, anomalous transport, with nonlinear dependence of the mean-squared displacement on the measurement time, is ubiquitous in nature. It has been observed in processes ranging from microscopic movement of…
Diffusion is a fundamental physical phenomenon with critical applications in fields such as metallurgy, cell biology, and population dynamics. While standard diffusion is well-understood, anomalous diffusion often requires complex non-local…
