Description

  • What Is the Einstein relation of diffusion for free particle, and how it is derived?
  • What is the Maxwell Boltzmann distribution of the velocity, and how it is derived?
  • How the particle is trapped and how its motion is monitored experimentally?
  • What are the different regimes of particle motion depending on the time scale at which it is observed? Which of these regimes is realised in the experiment?
  • What is the role of pressure?
