We study a system of charged, noninteracting classical particles moving in a Poisson distribution of hard-disk scatterers in two dimensions, under the effect of a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane. We prove that, in the low-density…

We revisit the scaling properties of growing spheres randomly seeded in d=2,3 and 4 dimensions using a mean-field approach. We model the insertion probability without assuming a priori a functional form for the radius distribution. The…

We study a model of mass-bearing coagulating planar Brownian particles. Coagulation is prone to occur when two particles become within a distance of order $\epsilon$. We assume that the initial number of particles is of the order of $| \log…

In a recent paper the mean square displacement (MSD), <R^2(T)>, of a particle carried by a turbulent liquid over time T has been shown to be proportional to T^6/5, meaning that the motion of the particle is slightly super-diffusive. In some…

According to the classical theory of Brownian motion, the mean squared displacement of diffusing particles evolves linearly with time whereas the distribution of their displacements is Gaussian. However, recent experiments on mesoscopic…
