Recently, trapped-particle experiments have probed the instantaneous velocity of Brownian motion revealing that, at early times, hydrodynamic history forces dominate Stokes damping. In these experiments, nonuniform particle motion is well…

In a viscous fluid, the past motion of an accelerating particle is retained as an imprint on the vorticity field, which decays slowly as $t^{-3/2}$. At low Reynolds number, the Basset-Boussinesq-Oseen (BBO) equation correctly describes…

Enhanced diffusion is an emergent property of many experimental microswimmer systems that usually arises from a combination of ballistic motion with random reorientations. A subset of these systems, autophoretic droplet swimmers that move…

We analyse the effect of the Basset history force on the sedimentation or rising of inertial particles in a two-dimensional convection flow. When memory effects are neglected, the system exhibits rich dynamics, including periodic,…

Microplastics are transported by ocean surface waves in ways that depart significantly from the Stokes drift of fluid parcels, and accurate modeling of this transport requires accounting for forces beyond linear drag. Existing modeling of…

In this paper, a comprehensive examination of the temperature- and bias-dependent diffusion regimes of underdamped Brownian particles is presented. A temperature threshold for a transition between anomalous and normal diffusive behaviors is…

Brownian motion has served as a pilot of studies in diffusion and other transport phenomena for over a century. The foundation of Brownian motion, laid by Einstein, has generally been accepted to be far from being complete since the late…

Subdiffusion is a hallmark of complex systems, ranging from protein folding to transport in viscoelastic media. However, despite its pervasiveness, the mechanistic origins of subdiffusion remain contested. Here, we analyze both Markovian…

We investigate the dynamics of an overdamped Brownian particle moving in a washboard potential with space dependent friction coefficient. Analytical expressions have been obtained for current and diffusion coefficient. We show that the…

We discuss the combined effects of overdamped motion in a quenched random potential and diffusion, in one dimension, in the limit where the diffusion coefficient is small. Our analysis considers the statistics of the mean first-passage time…

A self-propelled artificial microswimmer is often modeled as a ballistic Brownian particle moving with constant speed aligned along one of its axis, but changing direction due to random collisions with the environment. Similarly to thermal…

We demonstrate that 2D Fermi liquids can support peculiar excitations that are not subject to Landau's $T^2$ dissipation. The long-lived excitations relax through correlated angular dynamics involving "lock-step" angular displacements along…

A common wisdom posits that transports of conserved quantities across clean nonintegrable quantum systems at high temperatures are diffusive when probed from the emergent hydrodynamic regime. We show that this empirical paradigm may alter…
