Windblown dust plays critical roles in numerous geophysical and biological systems, yet current models fail to explain the transport of coarse-mode particles (>5 $\mu$m) to great distances from their sources. For particles larger than a few…

The electric drift current bias was recently introduced as a new paradigm to break the Lorentz reciprocity in graphene. Here, we study the impact of the nonreciprocal response in the energy extracted from a beam of swift charges travelling…
