Thermal motion in complex fluids is a complicated stochastic process but ubiquitously exhibits initial ballistic, intermediate sub-diffusive, and long-time non-Gaussian diffusive motion, unless interrupted. Despite its relevance to numerous…

Ionic transport in conventional ionic solids is generally considered to proceed via independent diffusion events or "hops''. This assumption leads to well-known Arrhenius expressions for transport coefficients, and is equivalent to assuming…
