Abstract:This paper studies two-lane asymmetric simple exclusion processes (ASEPs) with an intersection. In the upstream segments of the intersection, one particle can move to the next site with rate $1$ if the site is empty, and one particle can move forward with rate $p$ in the sites of downstream segments. The parameter $p$ can represent the rate of slowing down of motion, and the parameter is introduced to investigate spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) phenomenon. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations are carried out.… Show more
