Abstract: | We present a cellular automaton (CA) model of particles in a single-file motion with free particle exchange at the boundaries of a one-dimensional channel connected to two infinite reservoirs in order to study the self-transmission of particles with excluded mutual passage. The parallel, local and homogeneous rule sets of the CA algorithm consider two different interactions of varying strength between particles, without any specific particle-channel interaction. CA model results suggest that one hallmark of single-file motion is the conduction bursts at a particular time scale, which have thus far only been discovered for hydrogen bond networked water translocation. The cumulative transport probabilities of particles through single-file channels of different length follow a single profile, which can be obtained through proper scaling of time. The universal features of our results suggest new experiments in single-file channel with fluids other than water. |
