We show, using differential dynamic microscopy, that the diffusivity of non-motile cells in a three-dimensional (3D) population of motile E. coli is enhanced by an amount proportional to the active cell flux. While non-motile mutants…
Diffusion-limited association reactions are ubiquitous in nature. They are particularly important for biological reactions, where the reaction rates are often determined by the diffusive transport of the molecules on two-dimensional…
The behavior of the single-species reaction process $A+A\to O$ is examined near an impenetrable boundary, representing the flask containing the reactants. Two types of dynamics are considered for the reactants: diffusive and ballistic…
Diffusion of dopants in rutile is the fundamental process that determines the performance of many devices in which rutile is used. The diffusion behavior is known to be highly sample-dependent, but the reasons for this are less well…
We study a reaction-diffusion process that involves two species of atoms, immobile and diffusing. We assume that initially only immobile atoms, uniformly distributed throughout the entire space, are present. Diffusing atoms are injected at…
The features of electron assisted neutron exchange processes in crystalline solids are survayed. It is stated that, contrary to expectations, the cross section of these processes may reach an observable magnitude even in the very low energy…
The diffusion kinetics in a CoCrFeMnNi high entropy alloy is investigated by a combined radiotracer--interdiffusion experiment applied to a pseudo-binary Co$_{15}$Cr$_{20}$Fe$_{20}$Mn$_{20}$Ni$_{25}$ /…
We present an effective stochastic advection-diffusion-reaction (SADR) model that explains incomplete mixing typically observed in transport with bimolecular reactions. Unlike traditional advection-dispersion-reaction models, the SADR model…
We discuss the dependence of self- and interdiffusion coefficients on temperature and composition for two prototypical binary metallic melts, Al-Ni and Zr-Ni, in molecular-dynamics (MD) computer simulations and the mode-coupling theory of…
Many biological molecular motors and machines are driven by chemical reactions that occur in specific catalytic sites. We study whether the arrival of molecules to such an active site can be accelerated by the presence of a nearby inactive…
A solvable model is proposed and analyzed to reveal the mechanism underlying the diffusion enhancement recently reported for a model of molecular motors and predicted to be observed in the biological rotary motor $\rm F_1$-ATPase. It turns…
A novel mechanism of reaction-induced active molecular motion, not involving any kind of self-propulsion, is proposed and analyzed. Because of the momentum exchange with the surrounding solvent, conformational transitions in…
The reaction of volatile matter plays an important role in the process of bringing matter from the surface of the planet to the atmosphere. Therefore, by simulating the mixing and chemical reaction process of volatile matter in the…
Theoretical analysis, which maps single molecule time trajectories of a molecular motor onto unicyclic Markov processes, allows us to evaluate the heat dissipated from the motor and to elucidate its dependence on the mean velocity and…
This article presents a numerical simulation of solvent diffusion in transition metal dichalcogenide based nanomaterials during solvothermal reaction, leading to layer exfoliation and, consequently, a reduction in the average nanoparticle…
The transport of biomolecules, drugs, or reactants encapsulated inside stimuli-responsive polymer networks in aqueous media is fundamental for many material and environmental science applications, including drug delivery, biosensing,…
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the mechanism and kinetics of hydrated electron diffusion. The electron center of mass is found to exhibit Brownian-type behavior with a diffusion coefficient considerably greater than that…
Evolution of a system of diffusing and proliferating mortal reactants is analyzed in the presence of randomly moving catalysts. While the continuum description of the problem predicts reactant extinction as the average growth rate becomes…
Molecular agitation more rapid than thermal Brownian motion is reported for cellular environments, motor proteins, synthetic molecular motors, enzymes, and common chemical reactions, yet that chemical activity couples to molecular motion…
We investigate theoretically the physics of diffusion-limited intramolecular polymer reactions. The present work completes and goes beyond a previous study [Nat. Chem. 4, 268 (2012)] that showed that the distribution of the polymer…
