It was recently shown that fluctuations in the initial geometry of a heavy ion collision generally result in a dipole asymmetry of the distribution of outgoing particles. This asymmetry, unlike the usual directed flow, is expected to be…

We investigate an analytic theory of force-dipole hydrodynamics in a viscous membrane coupled to an infinite surrounding fluid, focusing on quenched (orientation-fixed) dipoles. While the single-dipole flow exhibits the known Saffman…

We present a simple analytical theory of flexible polymer chain dissolved in a good solvent, carrying permanent freely oriented dipoles on the monomers. We take into account the dipole correlations within the random phase approximation…
