The aqueous proton displays an anomalously large diffusion coefficient that is up to 7 times that of similarly sized cations. There is general consensus that the proton achieves its high diffusion through the Grotthuss mechanism, whereby…
The self-diffusion process in a dense liquid is influenced by collective particle movements. Extensive molecular dynamics simulations for liquid aluminium and rubidium evidence a crossover in the diffusion coefficient at about $1.4$ times…
Understanding the retention of hydrogen isotopes in liquid metals, such as lithium and tin, is of great importance in designing a liquid plasma-facing component in fusion reactors. However, experimental diffusivity data of hydrogen isotopes…
In the present work, we explore homogenization techniques for a class of switching diffusion processes whose drift and diffusion coefficients, and jump intensities are smooth, spatially periodic functions; we assume full coupling between…
Models of diffusion in white dwarfs universally rely on the coefficients calculated by Paquette et al. (1986). We present new calculations of diffusion coefficients based on an advanced microscopic theory of dense plasmas and a numerical…

Diffusion of Cu adatoms and dimers on Cu(111) and Ag(111) surfaces is analyzed basing on ab-initio surface potentials. As compared to the simple single adatom jumps that alternate between two states, dimers undergo more complex diffusion…
Structural defects in materials such as vacancies, grain boundaries, and dislocations may trap hydrogen and a local accumulation of hydrogen at these defects can lead to the degradation of the materials properties. An important aspect in…
We study lower and upper bounds for the probability that a diffusion process in $\mathbb{R}^n$ remains in a tube around a skeleton path up to a fixed time. We assume that the diffusion coefficients $\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_d$ may degenerate…
