The fractal dimension of Brownian dynamics in liquids
Michael C. Thumann, Jason Boynewicz, Giuseppe Procopio +2
The classical Einstein-Langevin theory of Brownian motion assumes a memoryless thermal bath, establishing a universal fractal dimension of for the velocity fluctuations…
Brownian motion: non-equilibrium states from equilibrium trajectories -- recovering hydrodynamic regimes from prepared displacement measurements
Jason Boynewicz, Michael C. Thumann, Giuseppe Procopio +1
Owing to the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation for Markovian dynamics,any equilibrium trajectory of a Brownian particle in a solvent fluid can be viewed as the superposition of an uncoun…
Probing short-range gravity using quantum reflection
J. Boynewicz, C. A. Sackett
Quantum reflection occurs when ultra-cold atoms are incident on a material surface with sufficiently low velocity. The reflecting matter wave can interfere with the incident wave t…
Observation of Super-ballistic Brownian Motion in Liquid
Jason Boynewicz, Michael C. Thumann, Mark G. Raizen
Brownian motion is a foundational physical process characterized by a mean squared displacement that scales linearly in time in thermal equilibrium, known as diffusion. At short ti…
