Space plasmas are weakly collisional since characteristic time scales related to Coulomb collisions are much larger than those of Larmor gyration or wave--particle interactions. Thus, wave activity is likely to drive some of the non-thermal…
We present here a detailed numerical study of the dynamical behaviour of `soft' uncompressed grains in a granular chain where the grains interact via the intrinsically nonlinear Hertz force. It is well known that such a chain supports the…

Within a closed system, physical interactions are reciprocal. However, the effective interaction between two entities of an open system may not obey reciprocity. Here, we describe a non-reciprocal interaction between nanoparticles which is…
