The concept of effective depletion forces between two fixed big colloidal particles in a bath of small particles is generalized to a non-equilibrium situation where the bath of small Brownian particles is flowing around the big particles…
The influence of an external field acting differently on the two constituents of a binary colloidal mixture performing Brownian dynamics is investigated by computer simulations and a simple theory. In our model, one half of the particles…
We consider a nonequilibrium transition that leads to the formation of nonlinear steady-state structures due to the gas flow scattering on a partially penetrable obstacle. The resulting nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) corresponds to a…
When a Brownian object is in a nonequilibrium steady state, actual force exerted on it is different from one in a thermal equilibrium. In our previous paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108 (2012), 160601] we discovered a general principle which…
We develop a mode coupling theory(MCT) to study the nonequilibrium glass transition behavior of a mono-disperse mixture of active-passive hard-sphere particles. The MCT equations clearly demonstrate that the glass transition is shifted to…
In striking contrast to equilibrium systems, inertia can profoundly alter the structure of active systems. Here, we demonstrate that driven systems can exhibit effective equilibrium-like states with increasing particle inertia, despite…
To describe the spatial trajectory of an overdamped Brownian particle, inertial effects can be neglected. Yet, at the energetic level of stochastic thermodynamics, changes in kinetic energy must be considered to accurately predict the heat…
Activation/deactivation by inelastic collisions have been extensively studied at unimolecular reactions in gas phase where they are crucial for equilibration. As equilibration means an increase of entropy, the mechanism can also be…
We consider the overdamped motion of Brownian particles, interacting via particle exclusion, in an external potential that varies with time and space. We show that periodic potentials that maintain specific position-dependent phase…
Non-equilibrium systems are known to exhibit long-ranged correlations due to conservation of quantities like density or momentum. This, in turn, leads to long-ranged fluctuation-induced (Casimir) forces, predicted to arise in a variety of…
We discuss the notion of nonequilibrium chemical potential in gases of non-interacting active particles filling two compartments separated by a potential energy barrier. Different types of active particles are considered: run-and-tumble…
We study the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of dissipative gases of atoms excited to two or more high-lying Rydberg states. This situation bears interesting similarities to classical binary (in general $p$-ary) mixtures of particles. The…
We investigate motility-induced phase separation of active Brownian particles, which are modeled as purely repulsive spheres that move due to a constant swim force with freely diffusing orientation. We develop on the basis of power…
We study the consequences of adopting the memory dependent, non-Markovian, physics with the memory-less over-damped approximation usually employed to investigate Brownian particles. Due to the finite correlation time scale associated with…
We study computationally the dynamics of forced, Brownian particles through a disordered system. As the concentration of mobile particles and/or fixed obstacles increase, we characterize the different regimes of flow and address how…
It is demonstrated that parallel weakly coupled quantum dots exhibit non-equilibrium blockade regimes caused by a full occupation in the spin triplet state, in analogy to the Pauli spin blockade in serially weakly coupled quantum dots.…
We study the driven Brownian motion of hard rods in a one-dimensional cosine potential with an amplitude large compared to the thermal energy. In a closed system, we find surprising features of the steady-state current in dependence of the…
We study the modification to the energy level shifts of an atom induced by the quenched monopolar charge disorder inside the bulk of neighboring dielectric slabs as well as their surfaces. By assuming that the charge disorder follows…
We address the gas, liquid, and crystal phase behaviour of active Brownian particles in three dimensions. The nonequilibrium force balance at coexistence leads to equality of state functions for which we use power functional approximations.…
In the presence of strong dephasing noise the dynamics of Rydberg gases becomes effectively classical, due to the rapid decay of quantum superpositions between atomic levels. Recently a great deal of attention has been devoted to the…
