The present work analyzes stationary distributions of active Brownian particles in a harmonic trap. Generally, obtaining stationary distributions for this system is non-trivial, and up to date no exact expressions are available. In this…

The rotational Brownian motion of colloidal spheres in dense suspensions reflects local hydrodynamics and friction, both key to non-linear rheological phenomena such as shear-thickening and jamming, and transport in crowded environments,…

Active Brownian particles (ABPs) serve as a minimal model of active matter systems. When ABPs are sufficiently persistent, they undergo a liquid-gas phase separation and, in the presence of obstacles, accumulate around them, forming a…

The properties of the ground state of liquid $^4$He are studied using a correlated basis function of the form $\prod_{i<j} \psi(r_{ij})$. Here, $\psi(r)$ is chosen as the exact solution of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for two $^4$He atoms.…
