Fluctuation theorems for stochastic dynamics
Fluctuation theorems make use of time reversal to make predictions about entropy
production in many-body systems far from thermal equilibrium. Here we review the wide …

Fluctuation theorem in quantum heat conduction
We consider steady-state heat conduction across a quantum harmonic chain connected to
reservoirs modeled by infinite collection of oscillators. The heat, Q, flowing across the …

Fluidized granular medium as an instance of the fluctuation theorem
We study the statistics of the power flux into a collection of inelastic beads maintained in a
fluidized steady state by external mechanical driving. The power shows large fluctuations …

A fluctuation theorem for non-equilibrium relaxational systems driven by external forces
We discuss an extension of the fluctuation theorem to stochastic models that, in the limit of
zero external drive, are not able to equilibrate with their environment, extending earlier …

Distribution of entropy production for a colloidal particle in a nonequilibrium steady state
For a colloidal particle driven by a constant force across a periodic potential, we investigate
the distribution of entropy production both experimentally and theoretically. For short …

Symmetry Properties of the Large-Deviation Function of the Velocity<? format?> of a Self-Propelled Polar Particle
A geometrically polar granular rod confined in 2D geometry, subjected to a sinusoidal
vertical oscillation, undergoes noisy self-propulsion in a direction determined by its polarity …

Large deviations of heat flow in harmonic chains
We consider heat transport across a harmonic chain connected at its two ends to white-

Nonequilibrium two-phase coexistence in a confined granular layer
We report the observation of the homogenous nucleation of crystals in a dense layer of steel
spheres confined between two horizontal plates vibrated vertically. Above a critical vibration …
