Chirality enhances diffusion in disordered environments

Joshua Uhlig, Jan Wójcik, Ralf Metzler +1

Chirality, a systematic rotational bias in the motion of a particle, arises in a wide range of physical and biological systems, from charged colloids in magnetic fields to swimming…

A mobility based approach to transport in chiral fluids

Filippo Faedi, Erik Kalz, Ralf Metzler +1

Chiral fluids, for which the mobility tensor has antisymmetric, off-diagonal components, exhibit transport phenomena absent in conventional systems, including interaction-enhanced…

The chiral random walk: A quantum-inspired framework for odd diffusion

Jan Wójcik, Erik Kalz

Chirality in active and passive fluids gives rise to odd transport properties, most notably the emergence of robust edge currents that defy standard dissipative dynamics. While the…

Reversal of tracer advection and Hall drift in an interacting chiral fluid

Erik Kalz, Shashank Ravichandir, Johannes Birkenmeier +2

Chiral fluids are defined by broken mirror or time-reversal symmetry, giving rise to tensorial transport coefficients with antisymmetric components. A key example is the odd mobili…

Self-diffusion anomalies of an odd tracer in soft-core media

Pietro Luigi Muzzeddu, Erik Kalz, Andrea Gambassi +2

Odd-diffusive systems, characterised by broken time-reversal and/or parity symmetry, have recently been shown to display counterintuitive features such as interaction-enhanced dyna…

The Dance of Odd-Diffusive Particles: A Fourier Approach

Amelie Langer, Abhinav Sharma, Ralf Metzler +1

Odd-diffusive systems are characterized by transverse responses and exhibit unconventional behaviors in interacting systems. To address the dynamical interparticle rearrangements i…

Field-Theory of Active Chiral Hard Disks: A First-Principles Approach to Steric Interactions

Erik Kalz, Abhinav Sharma, Ralf Metzler

A first-principles approach for active chiral hard disks is presented, that explicitly accounts for steric interactions on the two-body level. We derive an effective one-body equat…

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…

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…

Correlations in multithermostat Brownian systems with Lorentz force

Iman Abdoli, Erik Kalz, Hidde Derk Vuijk +4

We study the motion of a Brownian particle subjected to Lorentz force due to an external magnetic field. Each spatial degree of freedom of the particle is coupled to a different th…
