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…

Anomalous statistics in the Langevin equation with fluctuating diffusivity: from Brownian yet non-Gaussian diffusion to anomalous diffusion and ergodicity breaking

Takuma Akimoto, Jae-Hyung Jeon, Ralf Metzler +3

Diffusive motion is a fundamental transport mechanism in physical and biological systems, governing dynamics across a wide range of scales -- from molecular transport to animal for…

Conformable Scaling and Critical Dynamics: A Unified Framework for Phase Transitions

José Weberszpil, Ralf Metzler

We investigate the application of conformable derivatives to model critical phenomena near continuous phase transitions. By incorporating a deformation parameter into the different…

Diffusion of intrinsically disordered proteins within viscoelastic membraneless droplets

Fuga Watanabe, Takuma Akimoto, Robert B. Best +3

In living cells, intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), such as FUS and DDX4, undergo phase separation, forming biomolecular condensates. Using molecular dynamics simulations, w…

Tightness of slip-linked polymer chains

Ralf Metzler, Andreas Hanke, Paul G. Dommersnes +2

We study the interplay between entropy and topological constraints for a polymer chain in which sliding rings (slip-links) enforce pair contacts between monomers. These slip-links…
