Dynamics of a disordered, driven zero-range process in one dimension.
We study a disordered, driven zero range process which models a closed system of attractive particles that hop with site-dependent rates and whose steady state shows a condensation transition with increasing density. We characterize the dynamical properties of the mass fluctuations in the steady state in one dimension both analytically and numerically and show that there is a dynamic phase transition in the density-disorder plane. We also determine the form of the scaling function which describes the growth of the condensate as a function of time, starting from a uniform density distribution.
