We analyze the diffusive transport of Brownian particles in narrow channels with periodically varying cross-section. The geometrical confinements lead to entropic barriers, the particle has to overcome in order to proceed in transport…
Many one-dimensional systems of experimental interest possess multiple bands arising from shallow confining potentials. In this work, we study a gas of weakly interacting fermions and show that the bulk viscosity is dramatically altered by…
Disks of two sizes and weights in alternating sequence are confined to a long and narrow channel. The axis of the channel is horizontal and its plane vertical. The channel is closed off by pistons that freeze jammed microstates out of loose…
We study the properties of a one-dimensional (1D) granular gas consisting of $N$ hard rods on a line of length $L$ (with periodic boundary conditions). The particles collide inelastically and are fluidized by a heat bath at temperature…
Lyapunov modes are periodic spatial perturbations of phase-space states of many-particle systems, which are associated with the small positive or negative Lyapunov exponents. Although familiar for hard-particle systems in one, two, and…

Rotation curves constrain a galaxy's underlying mass density profile, under the assumption that the observed rotation produces a centripetal force that exactly balances the inward force of gravity. However, most rotation curves are measured…
Observations of turbulent velocity dispersions in the HI component of galactic disks show a characteristic floor in galaxies with low star formation rates and within individual galaxies the dispersion profiles decline with radius. We carry…
We carry out local three dimensional (3D) hydrodynamic simulations of planet-disk interaction in stratified disks with varied thermodynamic properties. We find that whenever the Brunt-Vaisala frequency (N) in the disk is nonzero, the planet…
The diffusive transport of biased Brownian particles in a two-dimensional symmetric channel is investigated numerically considering both the no-flow and the reflection boundary conditions at the channel boundaries. Here, the geometrical…
Positional ordering of a two-dimensional fluid of hard disks is examined in such narrow tubes where only the nearest-neighbor interactions take place. Using the exact transfer-matrix method the transverse and longitudinal pressure…
