Oscillatory force autocorrelations in equilibrium odd-diffusive systems

Erik Kalz, Hidde Derk Vuijk, Jens-Uwe Sommer +2

The force autocorrelation function (FACF), a concept of fundamental interest in statistical mechanics, encodes the effect of interactions on the dynamics of a tagged particle. In e…

Testing the physics of knots with a Feringa nanoengine

Michael Lang, Cornelia Schuster, Ron Dockhorn +2

We use the bond fluctuation model to study the contraction process of two polymer loops with segments that are connected each to the bottom and top part of a Feringa engine. Th…

Active chiral molecules in activity gradients

Pietro Luigi Muzzeddu, Hidde Derk Vuijk, Hartmut Lowen +2

While the behavior of active colloidal molecules is well studied by now for a constant activity, the effect of activity gradients is much less understood. Here we explore one of th…

Strongly enhanced dynamics of a charged Rouse dimer by an external magnetic field

Rushikesh Shinde, Jens Uwe Sommer, Hartmut Löwen +1

While the dynamics of dimers and polymer chains in a viscous solvent is well understood within the celebrated Rouse model, the effect of an external magnetic field on the dynamics…

Collisions enhance self-diffusion in odd-diffusive systems

Erik Kalz, Hidde Derk Vuijk, Iman Abdoli +3

It is generally believed that collisions of particles reduce the self-diffusion coefficient. Here we show that in odd-diffusive systems, which are characterized by diffusion tensor…

Active Colloidal Molecules in Activity Gradients

Hidde D. Vuijk, Sophie Klempahn, Holger Merlitz +2

We consider a rigid assembly of two active Brownian particles, forming an active colloidal dimer, in a gradient of activity. We show analytically that depending on the relative ori…
