Influence of fractional hydrodynamic memory on superdiffusion and supertransport in tilted washboard potentials — •Igor Goychuk — Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg — Universität Augsburg, Germany
Diffusion in tilted washboard potentials can paradoxically exceed free normal diffusion [1]. The effect becomes much stronger in the underdamped case due to inertial effects [2]. What happens upon inclusion of usually neglected fractional hydrodynamics memory effects (Basset-Boussinesq frictional force), which result in a heavy algebraic tail of the velocity autocorrelation function of the potential-free diffusion making it transiently superdiffusive? Will a giant enhancement of diffusion become even stronger, and the transient superdiffusion last even longer? These are the basic questions which we answer [3] based on an accurate numerical investigation. We show that a resonance-like enhancement of normal diffusion becomes indeed much stronger and sharper. Moreover, a long-lasting transient regime of superdiffusion, including Richardson-like diffusion, ⟨ δ x2(t)⟩∝ t3 and ballistic supertransport, ⟨ δ x(t)⟩∝ t2, is revealed.
