Entropy and Entropy Production in Some Applications

open access: yes, 2013
By using entropy and entropy production, we calculate the steady flux of some phenomena. The method we use is a competition method, $S_S/\tau+\sigma={\it maximum}$, where $S_S$ is system entropy, $\sigma$ is entropy production and $\tau$ is microscopic ...

Statistics of Infima and Stopping Times of Entropy Production and Applications to Active Molecular Processes

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2017
We study the statistics of infima, stopping times, and passage probabilities of entropy production in nonequilibrium steady states, and we show that they are universal. We consider two examples of stopping times: first-passage times of entropy production

On the validity of entropy production principles for linear electrical circuits

open access: yes, 2007
We discuss the validity of close-to-equilibrium entropy production principles in the context of linear electrical circuits. Both the minimum and the maximum entropy production principle are understood within dynamical fluctuation theory.

Entropy and Entropy Production in Multiscale Dynamics

open access: yes, 2018
Heat conduction is investigated on three levels: equilibrium, Fourier, and Cattaneo. The Fourier level is either the point of departure for investigating the approach to equilibrium or the final stage in the investigation of the approach from the ...

Information Scrambling over Bipartitions: Equilibration, Entropy Production, and Typicality. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2020
In recent years, the out-of-time-order correlator (OTOC) has emerged as a diagnostic tool for information scrambling in quantum many-body systems.

Fluctuation Theorem for Hidden Entropy Production

open access: yes, 2012
In the general process of eliminating dynamic variables in Markovian models, there exists a difference in the irreversible entropy production between the original and reduced dynamics. We call this difference the hidden entropy production, since it is an

Thermodynamic efficiency and entropy production in the climate system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present an outlook on the climate system thermodynamics. First, we construct an equivalent Carnot engine with efficiency and frame the Lorenz energy cycle in a macroscale thermodynamic context.

Entropy production of cyclic population dynamics

open access: yes, 2010
Entropy serves as a central observable in equilibrium thermodynamics. However, many biological and ecological systems operate far from thermal equilibrium. Here we show that entropy production can characterize the behavior of such nonequilibrium systems.

The Three Faces of the Second Law: II. Fokker-Planck Formulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The total entropy production is the sum of two contributions, the so-called adiabatic and nonadiabatic entropy production, each of which is non-negative.

Biophysical analysis of angiotensin II and amyloid‐β cross‐interaction in aggregation and membrane disruption

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Angiotensin II (AngII), a neuropeptide, interacts with amyloid‐β (Aβ), a key player in Alzheimer's disease. This study reveals that AngII reduces Aβ aggregation and membrane disruption in vitro. Biophysical assays and molecular modeling suggest AngII binds disordered Aβ forms, potentially modulating early amyloidogenic events and contributing to ...
