Brownian Motion and Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics

Science, 1986
This article is a personal reflection of the branch of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics called the linear response theory that has as its heart the fluctuation-dissipation thereom, which states that irreversible processes in nonequilibrium are necessarily related to thermal fluctuations in equilibrium.

Random Paths and Current Fluctuations in Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Physics, 2014
An overview is given of recent advances in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics about the statistics of random paths and current fluctuations. Although statistics is carried out in space for equilibrium statistical mechanics, statistics is considered in ...

Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics of Two-Dimensional Vortices [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2018
It has been observed empirically that two-dimensional vortices tend to cluster, forming a giant vortex. To account for this observation, Onsager introduced the concept of negative absolute temperature in equilibrium statistical mechanics. In this Letter,

Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics

open access: yes, 1998
In this monograph, nonequilibrium statistical mechanics is developed by means of ensemble methods on the basis of the Boltzmann equation, the generic Boltzmann equations for classical and quantum dilute gases, and a generalised Boltzmann equation for ...

Physics of a Microsystem Starting From Nonequilibrium Quantum Statistical Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesReports on Mathematical Physics, 2002
In this paper we address the problem to give a concrete support to the idea, originally stemming from Niels Bohr, that quantum mechanics must be rooted inside the physics of macroscopic systems.

Currents in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics

Physical Review E, 2009
Nonzero currents characterize the nonequilibrium state in stochastic dynamics (or master equation) models of natural systems. In such models there is a matrix R of transition probabilities connecting the states of the system. We show that if the strength of a transition increases, so does the current along the corresponding bond.
