The Entropy Production Distribution in Non-Markovian Thermal Baths
In this work we study the distribution function for the total entropy production of a Brownian particle embedded in a non-Markovian thermal bath. The problem is studied in the overdamped approximation of the generalized Langevin equation, which accounts for a friction memory kernel characteristic of a Gaussian colored noise. The problem is studied in two physical situations: (i) when the partic...
متن کاملEntropy production in a non-Markovian environment.
Stochastic thermodynamics and the associated fluctuation relations provide the means to extend the fundamental laws of thermodynamics to small scales and systems out of equilibrium. The fluctuating thermodynamic variables are usually treated in the context of either isolated Hamiltonian evolution, or Markovian dynamics in open systems. However, there is no reason a priori why the Markovian appr...
متن کاملNonequilibrium work fluctuations for oscillators in non-Markovian baths.
We study work fluctuation theorems for oscillators in non-Markovian heat baths. By calculating the work distribution function for a harmonic oscillator with motion described by the generalized Langevin equation, the Jarzynski equality (JE), transient fluctuation theorem (TFT), and Crooks' theorem (CT) are shown to be exact. In addition to this derivation, numerical simulations of anharmonic osc...
متن کاملDistribution of indoor radon concentrations between selected Hungarian thermal baths
Recently, it has been proved that more than half of the exposure to natural background radiation is from radon isotopes and their progenies [1]. The inhalation of radon and its decay products can result in biological changes within the lungs, thus increasing the risk of lung cancer. According to a report of the World Health Organization (WHO), after smoking, radon is the second most frequently ...
