We consider a stochastic process that describes several particles interacting by either merging or annihilation. When two particles merge, they combine their masses; when annihilation occurs, only the particle of smallest mass survives.…

Distinguishability plays a major role in quantum and statistical physics. When particles are identical their wave function must be either symmetric or antisymmetric under permutations and the number of microscopic states, which determines…

Three-velocity ballistic annihilation is an interacting system in which stationary, left-, and right-moving particles are placed at random throughout the real line and mutually annihilate upon colliding. We introduce a coalescing variant in…

We consider two species of particles performing random walks in a domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with reflecting boundary conditions, which annihilate on contact. In addition, there is a conservation law so that the total number of particles of…

Infinitely many particles of two types ("plus" and "minus") jump randomly along the one-dimensional lattice $\mathbf{Z}_{\varepsilon}=\varepsilon\mathbf{Z}$. Annihillations occur when two particles of different time occupy the same site.…

We study an infinite system of moving particles, where each particle is of type A or B. Particles perform independent random walks at rates D_A>0 and D_B>0, and the interaction is given by mutual annihilation A+B->0. The initial condition…

The kinetics of the annihilation process, $A+A\to 0$, with ballistic particle motion is investigated when the distribution of particle velocities is {\it discrete}. This discreteness is the source of many intriguing phenomena. In the mean…

When particles on a line collide, they may annihilate - both are destroyed. Computing exact annihilation probabilities has been difficult because collisions reduce the particle count, while determinantal methods require a fixed count…

We discuss a reaction-diffusion model in one dimension subjected to an external driving force. Each lattice site may be occupied by at most one particle. The particles hop with asymmetric rates (the sum of which is one) to the right or left…
