Diffusion Through a Network of Compartments Separated by Partially-Transmitting Boundaries

We study the random walk of a particle in a compartmentalized environment, as realized in biological samples or solid state compounds. Each compartment is characterized by its length L and the boundaries transmittance T. We identify two relevant spatio-temporal scales that provide alternative descri...
