Abstract

We propose a simulation method for Brownian dynamics of hard rods in one dimension for arbitrary continuous external force fields. It is an event-driven procedure based on the fragmentation and mergers of clusters formed by particles in contact. It allows one to treat particle interactions in addition to the hard-sphere exclusion as long as the corresponding interaction forces are continuous functions of the particle coordinates. We furthermore develop a treatment of sticky hard spheres as described by Baxter's contact interaction potential.
