Multi-wavelength spectroscopy can be used to constrain the dust and gas properties in debris disks. Circumstellar dust absorbs and scatters incident stellar light. The scattered light is sometimes resolved spatially at visual and…

We study diffusion of small light particles in a solvent which consists of large heavy particles. The intermolecular interactions are chosen to approximately mimic a water-sucrose (or water-polysaccharide) mixture. Both computer simulation…
The incorporation of particle inertia into the usual mean field theory for particle aggregation and fragmentation in fluid flows is still an unsolved problem. We therefore suggest an alternative approach that is based on the dynamics of…
