Analytic study of the three-urn model for separation of sand

Abstract: We present an analytic study of the three-urn model for separation of sand. We solve analytically the master equation and the first-passage problem. We find that the stationary probability distribution obeys the detailed balance and is governed by the free energy. We find that the characteristic lifetime of a cluster diverges algebraically with exponent 1/3 at the limit of stability.

“…7 are given in Table II. Additionally we can observe the different values of the constant prefactors a in the scaling law (6). For asymmetric dynamics, the coarsening time scale is roughly an order of magnitude faster for strongly asymmetric dynamics p left ≤ 0.75 compared with weakly asymmetric dynamics.…”

“…This is achieved by counting the number of droplets that have at least the typical mass (threshold mass) at every time in the trajectory and computing its average over many trajectories. The scaling exponent is then determined visually for the best data collapse assuming the power law (6).…”
