In a granular gas, inelastic collisions produce an instability in which the constituent particles cluster heterogeneously. These clusters then interact with each other, further decreasing their kinetic energy. We report experiments of the…
We experimentally investigate the statistical behaviour of a model two-dimensional granular system undergoing stationary sedimentation. Buoyant cylindrical particles are rotated in liquid-filled drum, thus confined in a harmonic centripetal…
Most present applications of time-dependent density functional theory use adiabatic functionals, i.e. the effective potential at time t is determined solely by the density at the same time. This paper discusses a method that aims to go…
We study a gas of point particles with hard-core repulsion in one dimension where the particles move freely in-between elastic collisions. We prepare the system with a uniform density on the infinite line. The velocities $\{v_i; i \in…
We propose a generalization of stochastic thermodynamics to systems of active particles, which move under the combined influence of stochastic internal self-propulsions (activity) and a heat bath. The main idea is to consider joint…
We find a general class of nontrivial stationary states in inelastic gases where, due to dissipation, energy is transfered from large velocity scales to small velocity scales. These steady-states exist for arbitrary collision rules and…
We present a detailed analytical investigation of the optimal control of uniformly heated granular gases in the linear regime. The intensity of the stochastic driving is therefore assumed to be bounded between two values that are close,…
Stimulated by recent experimental results, we simulate ``temperature''-cycling experiments in a model for the compaction of granular media. We report on the existence of two types of memory effects: short-term dependence on the history of…
We investigate numerically and analytically size-polydisperse granular mixtures immersed into a molecular gas. We show that the equipartition of granular temperatures of particles of different sizes is established; however, the granular…
A granular gas is a collection of macroscopic particles that interact through energy-dissipating collisions, also known as inelastic collisions. This inelasticity is characterized by a collision mechanics in which mass and momentum are…
Quantum thermodynamics with open systems is often based on the quantum optical weak-coupling master equation or on operational repeated interaction models, whereas early works on thermalisation and on decoherence theory were mostly…
Quantum memory capable of stopping flying photons and storing their quantum coherence is essential for scalable quantum technologies. A room-temperature broadband quantum memory will enable the implementation of large-scale quantum systems…
We study a two-dimensional granular gas of inelastic spheres subject to multiplicative driving proportional to a power $|v(\vec{x})|^{\delta}$ of the local particle velocity $v(\vec{x})$. The steady state properties of the model are…
If two phases exist at the same time, such as a gas and a liquid, they have the same temperature. This fundamental law of equilibrium physics is known to apply even to many non-equilibrium systems. However, recently, there has been much…
In this paper, a single population model with memory effect and the heterogeneity of the environment, equipped with the Neumann boundary, is considered. The global existence of a spatial nonhomogeneous steady state is proved by the method…
This paper is concerned with a kinetic model of a Vlasov-Fokker-Planck system used to describe the evolution of two species of particles interacting through a potential and a thermal reservoir at given temperature. We prove that at low…
Simulation results of dense granular gases with particles of different size are compared with theoretical predictions concerning the pair-correlation functions, the collison rate, the energy dissipation, and the mixture pressure. The…

We present molecular dynamics simulations of mono- or bidisperse inelastic granular gases driven by vibrating walls, in two dimensions (without gravity). Because of the energy injection at the boundaries, a situation often met…
The dissipation rate due to inelastic collisions between equally charged, insulating particles in a dilute granular medium is calculated. It is equal to the known dissipation rate for uncharged granular media multiplied by a Boltzmann-like…
