We characterize a system of hard spheres with a simple collision rule that breaks time reversal symmetry, but conserves energy. The collisions lead to an a-chiral, isotropic, and homogeneous stationary state, whose properties are determined…
Transport in Hamiltonian systems with weak chaotic perturbations has been much studied in the past. In this paper, we introduce a new class of problems: transport in Hamiltonian systems with slowly changing phase space structure that are…
We explore the dynamical evolution of a planet embedded in a disk surrounding a star part of a binary system where the orbital plane of the binary is significantly tilted respect to the initial disk plane. Our aim is to test whether the…

We study a driven system in which interaction between particles causes their directional, coupled movement. In that model system, two particles move alternatingly in time on two coupled chains. Without interaction, both particles diffuse…
We examine an assembly of repulsive disks interacting with a random obstacle array under a periodic drive, and find a transition from reversible to irreversible dynamics as a function of drive amplitude or disk density. At low densities and…

We study stochastic transport of interacting particles on a disordered network described by the random comb geometry. The model is defined on a one-dimensional backbone from which branches of random lengths emanate, providing a minimal…
The climate system is a forced, dissipative, nonlinear, complex and heterogeneous system that is out of thermodynamic equilibrium. The system exhibits natural variability on many scales of motion, in time as well as space, and it is subject…
The simultaneous presence of liquid and gas in porous media increases flow heterogeneity compared to saturated flows. However, so far the impact of saturation on flow statistics and transport dynamics remained unclear. Here, we develop a…
We study the collective behavior of nonequilibrium systems subject to an external field with a dynamics characterized by the existence of non-interacting states. Aiming at exploring the generality of the results, we consider two types of…
It is understood that congestion in traffic can be interpreted in terms of the instability of the equation of dynamic motion. The evolution of a traffic system from an unstable or metastable state to a globally stable state bears a strong…

In this work, we apply phase field simulations to examine the coarsening behavior of morphologically complex two-phase microstructures in which the phases have highly dissimilar mobilities, a condition approaching that found in experimental…
Azimuthal instabilities occur in rotationally symmetric systems, either as spinning (rotating) waves or standing waves. We make use of a novel ansatz to derive a differential equation characterizing the state of these instabilities in terms…
We study the two-dimensional Langevin dynamics of a two-component system, whose components are in contact with heat baths kept at different temperatures. Dynamics is constrained by an optical trap and the \text{dissimilar} species interact…
