Infinite-memory classical wave-particle entities, attractor-driven active particles, and the diffusionless Lorenz equations
R. N. Valani
Abstract:A classical wave-particle entity (WPE) can materialize as a millimeter-sized droplet walking horizontally on the free surface of a vertically vibrating liquid bath. This WPE comprises a particle (droplet) that shapes its environment by locally exciting decaying standing waves, which, in turn, guides the particle motion. At high amplitude of bath vibrations, the particle-generated waves decay very slowly in time and the particle motion is influenced by the history of waves along its trajectory. In this high-mem… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
