We study the effects of quantum corrections on transverse momentum broadening of a fast parton passing through dense QCD matter. We show that, at leading logarithmic accuracy the broadening distribution tends at late times or equivalently…

Time averages extracted from single-particle trajectories in complex media often vary strongly from one trajectory to another, even for long measurement times. Such persistent trajectory-to trajectory scatter is commonly observed in…

The porous media equation has been proposed as a phenomenological ``non-extensive'' generalization of classical diffusion. Here, we show that a very similar equation can be derived, in a systematic manner, for a classical fluid by assuming…

We study the effect of an external driving force on a simple stochastic reaction-diffusion system in one dimension. In our model each lattice site may be occupied by at most one particle. These particles hop with rates $(1\pm\eta)/2$ to the…

We present a numerical study of classical particles diffusing on a solid surface. The particles' motion is modeled by an underdamped Langevin equation with ordinary thermal noise. The particle-surface interaction is described by a periodic…

In classical diffusion, particle step-sizes have a Gaussian distribution. However, in superdiffusion, they have power-law tails, with transport dominated by rare, long L\'evy flights. Similarly, if the time interval between scattering…
