We study the stochastic motion of a particle subject to spatially varying Lorentz force in the small-mass limit. The limiting procedure yields an additional drift term in the overdamped equation that cannot be obtained by simply setting…
We study the dynamics of the N-particle system evolving in the XY hamiltonian mean field (HMF) model for a repulsive potential, when no phase transition occurs. Starting from a homogeneous distribution, particles evolve in a mean field…

We consider a Brownian particle in a ``meandering'' periodic potential when the ambient temperature is a periodically or stochastically varying function of time. Though far from equilibrium, the linear response of the particle to an…
We experimentally demonstrate the emergence of directional rotation in thermally active-passive colloidal structures under optical confinement. The observed handedness of rotation of the structure can be controlled by changing the relative…
This paper is concerned with the stochastic thermodynamics of non-equilibrium Gaussian processes that can exhibit anomalous diffusion. In the systems considered, the noise correlation function is not necessarily related to friction. Thus,…
