The crossover from single-file diffusion, where the mean-square displacement scales as <x^2> ~t^(1/2), to normal Fickian diffusion, where <x^2>~t$, is studied as a function of channel width for colloidal particles. By comparing Brownian…

We show that the Turing patterns in reaction systems with subdiffusion can be replicated in an effective system with Markovian cross-diffusion. The effective system has the same Turing instability as the original system, and the same…

Living systems at the sub-cellular, cellular, and multi-cellular level are often crowded systems that contain active particles. The active motion of these particles can also propel passive particles, which typically results in enhanced…

Active particles may happen to be confined in channels so narrow that they cannot overtake each other (Single File conditions). This interesting situation reveals nontrivial physical features as a consequence of the strong inter-particle…
Computer simulations were done of the mean square displacement (MSD) of tracer particles in colloidal gels formed by diffusion or reaction limited aggregation of hard spheres. The diffusion coefficient was found to be determined by the…
Diffusion is a fundamental physical phenomenon with critical applications in fields such as metallurgy, cell biology, and population dynamics. While standard diffusion is well-understood, anomalous diffusion often requires complex non-local…
Single-file transport, arising in quasi one-dimensional geometries where particles cannot pass each other, is characterized by the anomalous dynamics of a probe, notably its response to an external force. In these systems, the motion of…
Single file diffusion (SFD) exhibits anomalously slow collective transport when particles are able to immobilize by binding and unbinding to the one-dimensional channel within which the particles diffuse. We have explored this system for…
