    A model solution of the generalized Langevin equation: Emergence and Breaking of Time-Scale Invariance in Single-Particle Dynamics of Liquids

    Full text link
    It is shown that the solution of generalized Langevin equation can be obtained on the basis of simple comparison of the time scale for the velocity autocorrelation function of a particle (atom, molecule) and of the time scale for the corresponding memory function. The result expression for the velocity autocorrelation function contains dependence on the non-Markovity parameter, which allows one to take into account memory effects of the investigated phenomena. It is demonstrated for the cases of liquid tin and liquid lithium that the obtained expression for the velocity autocorrelation function is in a good agreement with the molecular dynamics simulation results.Comment: Dedicated to the memory of Prof. Renat M.

    In present paper we suggest a new universal approach to study complex systems by microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic methods. We discuss new possibilities of extracting information on nonstationarity, unsteadiness and non-Markovity of discrete stochastic processes in complex systems. We consider statistical properties of the fast, intermediate and slow components of the investigated processes in complex systems within the framework of microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic approaches separately. Among them theoretical analysis is carried out by means of local noisy time-dependent parameters and the conception of a quasi-Brownian particle (QBP) (mesoscopic approach) as well as the use of wavelet transformation of the initial row time series. As a concrete example we examine the seismic time series data for strong and weak earthquakes in Turkey (1998,19991998,1999) in detail, as well as technogenic explosions. We propose a new way of possible solution to the problem of forecasting strong earthquakes forecasting. Besides we have found out that an unexpected restoration of the first two local noisy parameters in weak earthquakes and technogenic explosions is determined by exponential law. In this paper we have also carried out the comparison and have discussed the received time dependence of the local parameters for various seismic phenomena

    Relaxation time scales in collective dynamics of liquid alkali metals

    Full text link
    In this paper the investigation of the dynamical processes of liquid alkali metals is executed by analyzing the time scales of relaxation processes in liquids. The obtained theoretical dynamic structure factor S(k,ω)S(k,\omega) for the case of liquid lithium is found to be in excellent agreement with the recently received inelastic X-ray scattering data. The comparison and interrelation with other theories are given here. Finally, an important part of this paper is the confirmation of the scale uniformity of the dynamic processes in liquid alkali metals predicted by some previous molecular dynamic simulation studies
