Nonequilibrium steady states
This paper contains rigorous results on nonequilibrium steady states for a class of particle systems coupled to unequal heat baths. These stochastic models are derived from the mechanical chains studied by Eckmann and Young by randomizing certain quantities while retaining other features of the model. Our results include the existence and uniqueness of nonequilibrium steady states, their relati...
متن کاملCorrelations in Nonequilibrium Steady States
We present the results of a detailed study of energy correlations at steady state for a 1-D model of coupled energy and matter transport. Our aim is to discover — via theoretical arguments, conjectures, and numerical simulations — how spatial covariances scale with system size, their relations to local thermodynamic quantities, and the randomizing effects of heat baths. Among our findings are t...
متن کاملFluctuation-Dissipation Theorem in Nonequilibrium Steady States
In equilibrium, the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) expresses the response of an observable to a small perturbation by a correlation function of this variable with another one that is conjugate to the perturbation with respect to energy. For a nonequilibrium steady state (NESS), the corresponding FDT is shown to involve in the correlation function a variable that is conjugate with respect...
متن کاملMomentum transfer in nonequilibrium steady states.
When a Brownian object interacts with noninteracting gas particles under nonequilibrium conditions, energy dissipation associated with Brownian motion causes an additional force on the object as a "momentum transfer deficit." This principle is demonstrated first by a new nonequilibrium steady state model and then applied to several known models such as an adiabatic piston for which a simple exp...
متن کاملFluctuations When Driving Between Nonequilibrium Steady States
Maintained by environmental fluxes, biological systems are thermodynamic processes that operate far from equilibrium without detailed-balance dynamics. Yet, they often exhibit well defined nonequilibrium steady states (NESSs). More importantly, critical thermodynamic functionality arises directly from transitions among their NESSs, driven by environmental switching. Here, we identify constraint...
