The Lorentz gas describes an ensemble of noninteracting point particles in an infinite array of spherical scatterers. In the present paper we consider the case when the scatterer configuration P is a fixed union of (translated) lattices in…
We compute analytically the anisotropic flow in an expanding mixture of several species of relativistic massive particles. We find that a single collision per particle in average already leads to sizable elliptic flow, with mass ordering…
We investigate the fluctuations of anisotropic transverse flow due to the finite number of scatterings in a two-dimensional system of massless particles. Using a set of initial geometries from a Monte Carlo Glauber model, we study how flow…
The Lorentz gas, a point particle making mirror-like reflections from an extended collection of scatterers, has been a useful model of deterministic diffusion and related statistical properties for over a century. This survey summarises…
We discuss collective effects in $pp$--collisions at the LHC energies and derive an upper bound for the anisotropic flow coefficients $v_n$. A possibility of its verification via comparison with the measurements of $v_2$ is considered. We…
Recent experimental results on directed and elliptic flow, theoretical developments, and new techniques for anisotropic flow analysis are reviewed.
The periodic Lorentz gas describes the dynamics of a point particle in a periodic array of spherical scatterers, and is one of the fundamental models for chaotic diffusion. In the present paper we investigate the Boltzmann-Grad limit, where…
The Lorentz gas is one of the simplest, most widely used models to study the transport properties of rarified gases in matter. It describes the dynamics of a cloud of non-interacting point particles in an infinite array of fixed spherical…
We investigate the random flight process that arises as the Boltzmann-Grad limit of a random scatterer Lorentz gas with variable scatterer density in a gravitational field. For power function densities we show how the parameters of the…
We introduce a nonequilibrium off--lattice model for anisotropic phenomena in fluids. This is a Lennard--Jones generalization of the driven lattice--gas model in which the particles' spatial coordinates vary continuously. A comparison…
Recent results of the anisotropic flow measurements by the ALICE Collaboration at the LHC are reviewed. Directed, elliptic, triangular, and quadrangular flow are presented differentially vs. transverse momentum, pseudo-rapidity, and the…
We consider a two-dimensional Lorentz gas with infinite horizon. This paradigmatic model consists of pointlike particles undergoing elastic collisions with fixed scatterers arranged on a periodic lattice. It was rigorously shown that when…
We present a new method to analyze anisotropic flow from the genuine correlation among a large number of particles, focusing on the practical implementation of the method.
We consider the Lorentz gas in a distribution of scatterers which microscopically converges to a periodic distribution, and prove that the Lorentz gas in the low density limit satisfies a linear Boltzmann equation. This is in contrast with…
We study the interaction between a pair of particles suspended in a uniform oscillatory flow. The time-averaged behavior of particles under these conditions, driven by inertial and viscous effects, is explored through a theoretical…
It is a safe conjecture that most (not necessarily periodic) two-dimensional Lorentz gases with finite horizon are recurrent. Here we formalize this conjecture by means of a stochastic ensemble of Lorentz gases, in which i.i.d. random…
Recently, clustering of inertial particles in turbulence has been thoroughly analyzed for statistically homogeneous isotropic flows. Phenomenologically, spatial homogeneity of particles configurations is broken by the advection of a range…
The analysis of anisotropic flow of particles created in high energy heavy-ion collisions gives insight into the early stage of these reactions. Measurements of directed flow (v1), elliptic flow (v2) and flow of 4th and 6th order (v4 and…
Considering the kinetic Boltzmann equation in the limit of very few collisions, we study the evolution of the phase space distribution of bottomonia interacting with an expanding gas of massless partons. We investigate the scaling of the…
The propagation of a spherical wave through a two-dimensional random Lorentz gas composed of small fixed scatterers is studied. Inspired by the Mott problem (how an initially isotropic quantum wave can give rise to a single particle-like…
