10. Recent investigations with oscillatory drives have revealed quite rich nonequilibrium transitions including, e.g., drive-induced ergodicity breaking, see, e.g., Refs..

15. Actually a softened hard-core potential was used, V (rij) = V0 rij -σ e- (rij -σ) /λ for rij >σ, with the interparticle distance rij = | ri - rj |. We fix the interaction strength V0 = kB T and the screening length σ/λ=20.

18. Much smaller area fractions would lead to weakly interacting system where segregation effects are lost. For higher area fractions, crystallization occurs which slows down the segregation effects considerably, see Ref..

20. An in-depth explanation for the width of the bands and the location of the voids is still needed. For example, Ciamarra found for a granular system the width of the bands to increase with increasing oscillation amplitude, see Ref..

29. The jamming in bands perpendicular to the field discussed in Ref., however, is different from segregation since a dc electric field was applied.
