Universal Extremal Statistics in a Freely Expanding Jepsen Gas
Ioana Bena 1, Satya N. Majumdar 2 Physical Review E: Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics 75 (2007) 051103 We study the extremal dynamics emerging in an out-of-equilibrium one-dimensional Jepsen gas of $(N+1)$ hard-point particles. The particles undergo binary elastic collisions, but move ballistically in-between collisions. The gas is initally uniformly distributed in a box $[-L,0]$ with the ‘leader’ […]
