Time-dependent fluctuation theorem [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2003
The fluctuation theorem (FT) is a generalization of the second law of thermodynamics that applies to small systems observed for short times. For thermostated systems it gives the probability ratio that entropy will be consumed rather than produced. In the present paper, we propose a version of the FT that applies to thermostated dissipative systems ...

Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorems for Multiphase Flow in Porous Media

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
A thermodynamic description of porous media must handle the size- and shape-dependence of media properties, in particular on the nano-scale. Such dependencies are typically due to the presence of immiscible phases, contact areas and contact lines.

Stochastic thermodynamics and fluctuation theorems for non-linear systems

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
We extend stochastic thermodynamics by relaxing the two assumptions that the Markovian dynamics must be linear and that the equilibrium distribution must be a Boltzmann distribution.

Extension of the Fluctuation Theorem [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2003
Heat fluctuations are studied in a dissipative system with both mechanical and stochastic components for a simple model: a Brownian particle dragged through water by a moving potential. An extended stationary state fluctuation theorem is derived. For infinite time, this reduces to the conventional fluctuation theorem only for small fluctuations; for ...

Fluctuation theorems from Bayesian retrodiction [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2021
Quantitative studies of irreversibility in statistical mechanics often involve the consideration of a reverse process, whose definition has been the object of many discussions, in particular for quantum mechanical systems. Here we show that the reverse channel very naturally arises from Bayesian retrodiction, both in classical and quantum theories ...

Fluctuation theorem between non-equilibrium states in an RC circuit

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Fluctuation theorems impose constraints on the probability of observing negative entropy production in small systems driven out of equilibrium. The range of validity of fluctuation theorems has been extensively tested for transitions between equilibrium ...

Fluctuation Theorems for a Quantum Channel

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2019
We establish the general framework of quantum fluctuation theorems by finding the symmetry between the forward and backward transitions of any given quantum channel.

Quasiprobability Distribution for Heat Fluctuations in the Quantum Regime

open access: yesPRX Quantum, 2020
The standard approach to deriving fluctuation theorems fails to capture the effect of quantum correlation and coherence in the initial state of the system.
