Fluctuation theorems, developed over the past 15 years, have resulted in fundamental breakthroughs in our understanding of how irreversibility emerges from reversible dynamics and have provided new statistical mechanical relationships for free-energy changes.

Fluctuations of Fluctuation-Induced Casimir-Like Forces [PDF]
The force experienced by objects embedded in a correlated medium undergoing thermal fluctuations--the so-called fluctuation--induced force--is actually itself a fluctuating quantity. We compute the corresponding probability distribution and show that it is a Gaussian centered on the well-known Casimir force, with a non-universal standard deviation that

Most species live in a variable environment in nature. Yet understanding the evolutionary processes underlying molecular adaptation to fluctuations remains a challenge.

THE UNIVERSE OF FLUCTUATIONS [PDF]
We discuss the recent model of a Quantum Mechanical Black Hole (QMBH) which describes the most fundamental known particles, the leptons and approximately the quarks in terms of the Kerr–Newman Black Hole with a naked singularity shielded by Zitterbewegung effects.

Fluctuations in Uncertainty [PDF]
In this essay, the author addresses four questions about uncertainty. First, what are some facts and patterns about economic uncertainty? Both macro and micro uncertainty appear to rise sharply in recessions and fall in booms. Uncertainty also varies heavily across countries - developing countries appear to have about one-third more macro uncertainty ...

Optimal Sizing of Hybrid Wind-Solar Power Systems to Suppress Output Fluctuation
Harnessing wind energy is one of the fastest-growing areas in the energy industry. However, wind power still faces challenges, such as output intermittency due to its nature and output reduction as a result of the wake effect.

Hydromorphology and environmental restoration of Gorgan Bay, the Southeast Caspian Sea [PDF]
Rapid sea level changing of the Caspian Sea has affected coastal geomorphology and environmental condition of Gorgan Bay since the end of 20th century. The vast parts of the Gorgan bay and Miankaleh Wetland have been dried out.

The cosmology of fluctuations [PDF]
We review a cosmology in which particles are fluctuationally created from a background Zero Point Field. This cosmology is consistent with recent observations of an ever expanding and accelerating universe, as also the recently confirmed evolution of the fine structure constant.
