Velocity Correlations of a Brownian Particle Velocity Correlations of a Brownian Particle
A new derivation of the velocity correlations of a thermally fluctuating Brownian particle is shown by direct calculation from a stochastic hydrodynamic model in which the fluid-particle coupling is treated in a simple manner. The model significantly simplifies the calculation of statistics of a particle and has the virtue of being readily amenable to numerical simulation. To show that the mode...
متن کاملThe wave function of a Brownian particle
Using the Caldirola-Kanai Hamiltonian, we study the time evolution of the wave function of a particle whose classical motion is governed by the Langevin equation mẍ + ηẋ = F (t). We show, in particular, that if the initial wave function is Gaussian, then (i) it remains Gaussian for all times, (ii) its width grows, approaching a finite value when t → ∞, but (iii) its center describes a Brownian ...
متن کاملMeasurement of the instantaneous velocity of a Brownian particle.
Brownian motion of particles affects many branches of science. We report on the Brownian motion of micrometer-sized beads of glass held in air by an optical tweezer, over a wide range of pressures, and we measured the instantaneous velocity of a Brownian particle. Our results provide direct verification of the energy equipartition theorem for a Brownian particle. For short times, the ballistic ...
متن کاملWave function of a Brownian particle
Using the Hamiltonian of Caldirola [Nuovo Cimento 18, 393 (1941)] and Kanai [Prog. Theor. Phys. 3, 440 (1948)], we study the time evolution of the wave function of a particle whose classical motion is governed by the Langevin equation mẍ + ηẋ = F (t). We show in particular that if the initial wave function is Gaussian, then (i) it remains Gaussian for all times, (ii) its width grows, approachin...
متن کاملVelocity and stress autocorrelation decay in isothermal dissipative particle dynamics.
The velocity and stress autocorrelation decay in a dissipative particle dynamics ideal fluid model is analyzed in this paper. The autocorrelation functions are calculated at three different friction parameters and three different time steps using the well-known Groot/Warren algorithm and newer algorithms including self-consistent leap-frog, self-consistent velocity Verlet and Shardlow first and...
