@vavachan, how much displacement in z do you get, compared to the size of the particle ? In other words, how much is <z^2>
compared to a^2
? If the particle displacement is very small, then there is hardly any change in the friction, and it is as if you have a constant friction which depends only on the local mean value of z. So, you need to be in the window where (a) the particle is close enough to the wall for the Faxen correction to be important and (b) there is sufficient displacement in z for the friction to acquire a position-dependence.
Also, please report all the time-scales we had discussed this evening.
@vavachan, please have a look at this plot, which shows the time scales we had discussed You will, of course, not see this behaviour in the msd, since it is for a free Brownian particle.
m=1 Z_0=1.1 a=1 delta T=.0001 omega=10 2*pi/omega=.621 eta=.1 m/(6 x pi x eta x a)=.53 (underdamped)
Temperature is .5 ,Kb=.5 , so the width of gaussian is around .005. a is 1 , so its too small, But If i increase the distance from the wall to around 5 and increase the temperature to 200, the <z^2> is around 1 and so is a^2 , but
