In this paper, the first microscopic approach to the Brownian motion is developed in the case where the mass density of the suspending bath is of the same order of magnitude as that of the Brownian (B) particle. Starting from an extended…

We present a dynamic density functional theory (dDFT) which takes into accou nt the advection of the particles by a flowing solvent. For potential flows we can use the same closure as in the absence of solvent flow. The structure of the…

The homogeneous state of a binary mixture of smooth inelastic hard disks or spheres is analyzed. The mixture is driven by a thermostat composed by two terms: a stochastic force and a drag force proportional to the particle velocity. The…
