We propose the general scaling model for the diffusio n-annihilation reaction $A_{+} + A_{-} longrightarrow emptyset$ with long-range power-law i nteractions. The presented scaling arguments lead to the finding of three different regimes, dep ending on the space dimensionality d and the long-range force power e xponent n. The obtained kinetic phase diagram agrees well with existing simulation data and approximate theoretical results.

We introduce coarse-grained hydrodynamic equations of motion for diffusion-annihilation system with a power-law long-range interaction. By taking into account fluctuations of the conserved order parameter - charge density - we derive an analytically solvable approximation for the nonconserved order parameter - total particle density. Asymptotic solutions are obtained for the case of random Gaussian initial conditions and for system dimensionality $d geq 2$. Large-t, intermediate-t and small-t asymptotics were calculated and compared with existing scaling theories, exact results and simulation data.
We report on a comprehensive theory-simulation-experimental study of collective and self-diffusion in suspensions of charge-stabilized colloidal spheres. In simulation and theory, the spheres interact by a hard-core plus screened Coulomb pair potential. Intermediate and self-intermediate scattering functions are calculated by accelerated Stokesian Dynamics simulations where hydrodynamic interactions (HIs) are fully accounted for. The study spans the range from the short-time to the colloidal long-time regime. Additionally, Brownian Dynamics simulation and mode-coupling theory (MCT) results are generated where HIs are neglected. It is shown that HIs enhance collective and self-diffusion at intermediate and long times, whereas at short times self-diffusion, and for certain wavenumbers also collective diffusion, are slowed down. MCT significantly overestimate the slowing influence of dynamic particle caging. The simulated scattering functions are in decent agreement with our dynamic light scattering (DLS) results for suspensions of charged silica spheres. Simulation and theoretical results are indicative of a long-time exponential decay of the intermediate scattering function. The approximate validity of a far-reaching time-wavenumber factorization of the scattering function is shown to be a consequence of HIs. Our study of collective diffusion is amended by simulation and theoretical results for the self-intermediate scattering function and the particle mean squared displacement (MSD). Since self-diffusion is not assessed in DLS measurements, a method to deduce the MSD approximately in DLS is theoretically validated.
The present review is devoted to the problems of finite-size scaling due to the presence of long-range interaction decaying at large distance as $1/r^{d+sigma}$, where $d$ is the spatial dimension and the long-range parameter $sigma>0$. Classical and quantum systems are considered.
We study diffusion-controlled single-species annihilation with sparse initial conditions. In this random process, particles undergo Brownian motion, and when two particles meet, both disappear. We focus on sparse initial conditions where particles occupy a subspace of dimension $delta$ that is embedded in a larger space of dimension $d$. We find that the co-dimension $Delta=d-delta$ governs the behavior. All particles disappear when the co-dimension is sufficiently small, $Deltaleq 2$; otherwise, a finite fraction of particles indefinitely survive. We establish the asymptotic behavior of the probability $S(t)$ that a test particle survives until time $t$. When the subspace is a line, $delta=1$, we find inverse logarithmic decay, $Ssim (ln t)^{-1}$, in three dimensions, and a modified power-law decay, $Ssim (ln t),t^{-1/2}$, in two dimensions. In general, the survival probability decays algebraically when $Delta <2$, and there is an inverse logarithmic decay at the critical co-dimension $Delta=2$.
We present results of a Monte Carlo study for the ferromagnetic Ising model with long range interactions in two dimensions. This model has been simulated for a large range of interaction parameter $sigma$ and for large sizes. We observe that the results close to the change of regime from intermediate to short range do not agree with the renormalization group predictions.
