Work and heat probability distributions in out-of-equilibrium systems
arXiv:0708.0740 · doi:10.1016/j.crhy.2007.04.017
Abstract
We review and discuss the equations governing the distribution of work done on a system which is driven out of equilibrium by external manipulation, as well as those governing the entropy flow to a reservoir in a nonequilibrium system. We take advantage of these equations to investigate the path phase transition in a manipulated mean-field Ising model and the large-deviation function for the heat flow in the asymmetric exclusion process with periodically varying transition probabilities.
