Big Entropy Fluctuations in Statistical Equilibrium: the Macroscopic Kinetics
Large entropy fluctuations in an equilibrium steady state of classical mechanics were studied in extensive numerical experiments on a simple 2–freedom strongly chaotic Hamiltonian model described by the modified Arnold cat map. The rise and fall of a large separated fluctuation was shown to be described by the (regular and stable) ”macroscopic” kinetics both fast (ballistic) and slow (diffusive...
متن کاملComposable entropy and deviation from macroscopic equilibrium
We formulate, under general conditions, the problem of maximisation of the total entropy of the system, assumed to be in a composable form, for fixed total value of the constrained quantity. We derive the general form of the composability function and also point out the criterion which leads to a violation of the zeroth law of thermodynamics. ∗e-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملTentative statistical interpretation of non-equilibrium entropy
We suggest a certain statistical interpretation for the entropy produced in driven thermodynamic processes. The exponential function of the irreversible entropy re-weights the probability of the standard Ornstein-Uhlenbeck-type thermodynamic fluctuations. ∗E-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملLocal Fluctuations and Local Observers in Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics
The distribution function associated with a classical gas at equilibrium is considered. We prove that apart from a factorisable multiplier, the distribution function is fully determined by the correlations among local momenta fluctuations. Using this result we discuss the conditions which enable idealised local observers, who are immersed in the gas and form a part of it, to determine the distr...
متن کاملSTATISTICAL MECHANICS OF ENTROPY PRODUCTION: Gibbsian hypothesis and local fluctuations
It is argued that a Gibbsian formula for the space-time distribution of microscopic trajectories of a nonequilibrium system provides a unifying framework for recent results on the fluctuations of the entropy production. The variable entropy production is naturally expressed as the time-reversal symmetry breaking part of the space-time action functional. Its mean is always positive. This is both...
