Dynamical aspects of spontaneous symmetry breaking in driven flow with exclusion
Dynamical aspects of spontaneous symmetry breaking in driven flow with exclusion
We present a numerical study of a two-lane version of the stochastic nonequilibrium model known as the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process. For such a system with open boundaries, and suitably chosen values of externally imposed particle injection (α) and ejection (β) rates, spontaneous symmetry breaking can occur. We investigate …
