Fluctuation Theorem for Heat Flow

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermophysics, 2001
Thermal conduction in a classical many-body system which is in contact with two isothermal reservoirs maintained at different temperatures is considered. The probability that when observed for a finite time, the heat flux of a finite system flows in the reverse direction to that required by the Second Law of Thermodynamics is calculated from first ...

Prediction of Structural Stability of Layered Oxide Cathode Materials: Combination of Machine Learning and Ab Initio Thermodynamics

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, we developed a phase‐stability predictor by combining machine learning and ab initio thermodynamics approaches, and identified the key factors determining the favorable phase for a given composition. Specifically, a lower TM ionic potential, higher Na content, and higher mixing entropy favor the O3 phase.

Temperature Sensitivity and Adaptation of Cereal Yields: Empirical Evidence From Italy

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the evolving temperature sensitivity and climate adaptation of cereal yields in Italy from 1952 to 2023, using province‐level data for maize, common wheat, and durum wheat. Employing panel data econometric methods, we estimate yield responses to heat exposure, changes in sensitivity over time, and adaptation to climate ...

Non-equilibrium spin-boson model: counting statistics and the heat exchange fluctuation theorem

open access: yes, 2011
We focus on the non-equilibrium two-bath spin-boson model, a toy model for examining quantum thermal transport in many-body open systems. Describing the dynamics within the NIBA equations, applicable, e.g., in the strong system-bath coupling limit and/or

Price Premiums for Single‐Name and Compound‐Name Geographical Indications in Swiss Cheese Trade

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geographical indications (GIs) have become increasingly important in agri‐food markets, especially in Europe. For Swiss cheese imports and exports, we analyze whether GIs are associated with higher trade prices. We find that price premiums can be obtained for both exports and imports. However, this is only the case for cheeses with single name

Role of work in matter exchange between finite quantum systems

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
Close to equilibrium, the exchange of particles and heat between macroscopic systems at different temperatures and different chemical potentials is known to be governed by a matrix of transport coefficients which are positive and symmetric.

Hierarchical Information Entropy System Model for TWfMS

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
Under the infrastructure of three gradually deepening layers consisting of System, Service and Software, the information entropy of the Trustworthy Workflow Management System (TWfMS) will evolve from being more precise to more undetermined, due to a ...

Pricing Dynamics in the US Hemp Market: A Vertical Price Transmission Analysis of the Hemp Value Chain

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The US hemp market is a new and nascent industry that has been devoid of research for about half a century. This study examined the effects of exogenous shock on price at each phase of the value chain—Farm (hemp biomass), and its impact on prices at other phases of the value chain—Intermediary Processor (crude cannabidiol hemp) and Final ...

Fitness Gain of Individually Sensed Information by Cells

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
Mutual information and its causal variant, directed information, have been widely used to quantitatively characterize the performance of biological sensing and information transduction. However, once coupled with selection in response to decision-making,
