Brownian particles in random potentials show an extended regime of subdiffusive dynamics at intermediate times. The asymptotic diffusive behavior is often established at very long times and thus cannot be accessed in experiments or…

Stochastic motion of particles in a highly unstable potential generates a number of diverging trajectories leading to undefined statistical moments of the particle position. This makes experiments challenging and breaks down a standard…

We present a study on the dynamics of a system consisting of a pair of hardcore particles diffusing with different rates. We solved the drift-diffusion equation for this model in the case when one particle, labeled F, drifts and diffuses…
