We investigate a model in which an ensemble of chemically identical Brownian particles are continuously growing by condensation and at the same time undergo irreversible aggregation whenever two particles come into contact upon collision.…

The dynamical scaling of ageing ferromagnetic systems can be generalized to a local scale invariance. This yields a prediction for the causal two-time response function, which has been numerically confirmed in the Glauber-Ising model…
