Show affiliationsWe numerically compute correlation functions of momenta and diffusion of angles with homogeneous initial conditions in the quasi-stationary states of the Hamiltonian mean field model. This is an example, in an N-body Hamiltonian system, of anomalous transport properties characterized by non-exponential relaxations and long-range temporal correlations. Kinetic theory predicts a striking transition between weak anomalous diffusion and strong anomalous diffusion. The numerical results are in excellent agreement with the quantitative predictions of the anomalous transport exponents. It is noteworthy that, at statistical equilibrium also, the system exhibits long-range temporal correlations: the correlation function is inversely proportional to time with a logarithmic correction instead of the usually expected exponential decay, leading to weak anomalous transport properties.
