Memory effects and ergodicity for diffusion in spatially correlated velocity fields

Nicolae Suciu
(original), paper

Abstract

We show that the process of diffusion in statistically homogeneous velocity fields with finite correlation range “remembers” the shape and the orientation of the source over hundreds of dimensionless times and behaves ergodically with respect to the one‐particle dispersion only asymptotically.
