Abstract

We study statistical properties of a one dimensional infinite system of coalescing particles. Each particle moves with constant velocity ±v\pm v towards its closest neighbor and merges with it upon collision. We propose a mean-field theory that confirms a t−1t^{-1} concentration decay obtained in simulations and provides qualitative description for the densities of growing, constant, and shrinking inter-particle gaps.
