10 May 2016 | Abstract: | The memory kernel for a tagged particle in a fluid, computed from molecular
dynamics simulations, decays algebraically as $t^{-3/2}$. We show how the
hydrodynamic Basset-Boussinesq force naturally emerges from this long-time tail
and generalize the concept of hydrodynamic added mass. This mass term is
negative in the present case of a molecular solute, at odds with incompressible
hydrodynamics predictions. We finally discuss the various contributions to the
friction, the associated time scales and the cross-over between the molecular
and hydrodynamic regimes upon increasing the solute radius. | Source: | arXiv, 1605.3075 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
