Ratchet phenomena in a spatially periodic harmonic potential
Xavier Leoncini ; Anatoly Neishtadt ; Alexei Vasiliev ;
Date 30 Jul 2008
AbstractTransport of a particle in a spatially periodic harmonic potential under the influence of a slowly time-dependent unbiased periodic external force is studied. The equations of motion are the same as in the problem of a slowly forced nonlinear pendulum. Using methods of the adiabatic perturbation theory we show that for a periodic external force of general kind the system demonstrates directed (ratchet) transport and obtain a formula for the average velocity of this transport.
