We study a system of backscattering hard rods in one dimension. Contrary to the usual ballistic hard rods, these hard rods flip the sign of their velocities with a rate $\gamma$. This leads to the decay of the odd moments of velocity while…

A considerable number of systems have recently been reported in which Brownian yet non-Gaussian dynamics was observed. These are processes characterised by a linear growth in time of the mean squared displacement, yet the probability…

Nonmagnetic particles in a carrier ferrofluid acquire an effective dipolar moment when placed in an external magnetic field. This fact leads them to form chains that will roughen due to Brownian motion when the magnetic field is decreased.…

We investigate the stochastic dynamics of a quasiparticle within a gas of hard rods, focusing on the evolution of its mean, variance, and autocorrelation for two choices of initial states: (i) one with long-range (LR) correlations and (ii)…

We study the Brownian motion of a rigid rod threading through a small fixed ring while the ring can freely rotate. We derive the distribution function for the sliding displacement and the unit vector along the rod both at equilibrium and…
