We study the kinetics of two-species annihilation, A+B--->0, when all particles undergo strictly biased motion in the same direction and with an excluded volume repulsion between same species particles. It was recently shown that the…

We analyze the long time behavior of initial value problems that model a process where particles of type A and B diffuse in some substratum and react according to $nA+nB\to C$. The case n=1 has been studied before; it presents nontrivial…

The kinetics of the annihilation process, $A+A\to 0$, with ballistic particle motion is investigated when the distribution of particle velocities is {\it discrete}. This discreteness is the source of many intriguing phenomena. In the mean…

The kinetics of single-species annihilation, $A+A\to 0$, is investigated in which each particle has a fixed velocity which may be either $\pm v$ with equal probability, and a finite diffusivity. In one dimension, the interplay between…

Active systems are inherently out of equilibrium, as they collect energy from their surroundings and transform it into directed motion. A recent theoretical study suggests that binary mixtures of active particles with distinct effective…

We study front propagation in the reversible reaction-diffusion system A + A <-> A on a 1-d lattice. Extending the idea of leading particle in studying the motion of the front we write a master equation in the stochastically moving frame…

$\alpha$ decay occurs in both ground states and isomers of nuclei. In this work, we use the two-potential approach to systematically study whether isomeric states play a key role on $\alpha$ particle clustering or not. The results indicate…

The spin is an important property of a particle. Although it is unlikely to happen, there is still a possibility that two particle with different spins share similar masses. In this paper, we propose a method to probe this kind of mass…

We discuss the front propagation in the $A+B\rightarrow 2A$ reaction under subdiffusion which is described by continuous time random walks with a heavy-tailed power law waiting time probability density function. Using a crossover argument,…

We consider the asymptotic behavior of the (one dimensional) two-species annihilation reaction A + B --> 0, where both species have a uniform drift in the same direction and like species have a hard core exclusion. Extensive numerical…

In inverted atomic ensembles, photon-mediated interactions give rise to Dicke superradiance, a form of many-body decay that results in a rapid release of energy as a photon burst. While originally studied in pointlike ensembles, this…
