In systems possessing spatial or dynamical symmetry breaking, Brownian motion combined with symmetric external input signals, deterministic or random, alike, can assist directed motion of particles at the submicron scales. In such cases,…
Stochastic motion of charged particles in the magnetic field was first studied almost half a century ago in the classical works by Taylor and Kursunoglu in connection with the diffusion of electrons and ions in plasma. In their works the…
