Fractional statistical mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesChaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2006
The Liouville and first Bogoliubov hierarchy equations with derivatives of noninteger order are derived. The fractional Liouville equation is obtained from the conservation of probability to find a system in a fractional volume element. This equation is used to obtain Bogoliubov hierarchy and fractional kinetic equations with fractional derivatives ...

From Relativistic Mechanics towards Relativistic Statistical Mechanics

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Till now, kinetic theory and statistical mechanics of either free or interacting point particles were well defined only in non-relativistic inertial frames in the absence of the long-range inertial forces present in accelerated frames.

Stochastic thermodynamics of all-to-all interacting many-body systems

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2020
We provide a stochastic thermodynamic description across scales for N identical units with all-to-all interactions that are driven away from equilibrium by different reservoirs and external forces.

Interventionism in Statistical Mechanics

open access: yesEntropy, 2012
I defend the idea that the fact that no system is entirely isolated (“Interventionism”) can be used to explain the successful use of the microcanonical distribution in statistical mechanics.

Thermodynamic efficiency in dissipative chemistry

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Open chemical systems operate out of equilibrium, providing more opportunities than closed systems, but a theoretical framework to describe their performance is lacking. Here, the authors assess the efficiency of two classes of dissipative processes with

Boosted Statistical Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Theoretical Physics, 2015
Based on the fundamental principles of Relativistic Quantum Mechanics, we give a rigorous, but completely elementary, proof of the relation between fundamental observables of a statistical system when measured relatively to two inertial reference frames, connected by a Lorentz transformation.

Statistical mechanics of complex networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Complex networks describe a wide range of systems in nature and society, much quoted examples including the cell, a network of chemicals linked by chemical reactions, or the Internet, a network of routers and computers connected by physical links.

Negative differential response in chemical reactions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2019
Reaction currents in chemical networks usually increase when increasing their driving affinities. But far from equilibrium the opposite can also happen. We find that such negative differential response (NDR) occurs in reaction schemes of major biological

Statistical mechanics of bubbly liquids [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The dynamics of bubbles at high Reynolds numbers is studied from the viewpoint of statistical mechanics. Individual bubbles are treated as dipoles in potential flow.

Statistical mechanics of complex economies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the pursuit of ever increasing efficiency and growth, our economies have evolved to remarkable degrees of complexity, with nested production processes feeding each other in order to create products of greater sophistication from less sophisticated ...
