Molecular diffusion between walls with adsorption and desorption
Maximilien Levesque, Olivier Bénichou, Benjamin Rotenberg
The time dependency of the diffusion coefficient of particles in porous media is an efficient probe of their geometry. The analysis of this quantity, measured e.g. by nuclear magne…
Taylor Dispersion with Adsorption and Desorption
Maximilien Levesque, Olivier Bénichou, Raphaël Voituriez +1
We use a stochastic approach to show how Taylor dispersion is affected by kinetic processes of adsorption and desorption onto surfaces. A general theory is developed, from which we…
Reactive conformations and non-Markovian cyclization kinetics of a Rouse polymer
T. Guérin, O. Bénichou, R. Voituriez
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…
Exact mean exit time for surface-mediated diffusion
J. -F. Rupprecht, O. Bénichou, D. S. Grebenkov +1
We present an exact expression for the mean exit time through the cap of a confining sphere for particles alternating phases of surface and of bulk diffusion. The present approach…
Anomalous field-induced growth of fluctuations in dynamics of a biased intruder moving in a quiescent medium
Olivier Bénichou, Carlos Mejía-Monasterio, Gleb Oshanin
We present exact results on the dynamics of a biased, by an external force , intruder (BI) in a two-dimensional lattice gas of unbiased, randomly moving hard-core particle…
Reactive conformations and non-Markovian reaction kinetics of a Rouse polymer searching for a target in confinement
T. Guérin, O. Bénichou, R. Voituriez
We investigate theoretically a diffusion-limited reaction between a reactant attached to a Rouse polymer and an external fixed reactive site in confinement. The present work comple…
