We observed the zig-zag motion of small Leidenfrost water droplets (radii less than 0.6 mm) on a hot, flat substrate. To understand this motion, we conducted an experiment using a glass capillary to fix a droplet at its edge and control the…
A generalization of the Drude model is studied. On the one hand, the free motion of the particles is allowed to be sub- or superdiffusive; on the other hand, the distribution of the time delay between collisions is allowed to have a long…

A \textit{walker} is a droplet of liquid that self-propels on the free surface of an oscillating bath of the same liquid through feedback between the droplet and its wave field. We have studied walking droplets in the presence of two…
