Irreversibility and Entropy Production in Transport Phenomena II -- Statistical-mechanical Theory on Steady States including Thermal Disturbance and Energy Supply
arXiv:1111.2118 · doi:10.1016/j.physa.2011.09.033
Abstract
Some general aspects of nonlinear transport phenomena are discussed on the basis of two kinds of formulations obtained by extending Kubo's perturbational scheme of the density matrix and Zubarev's non-equilibrium statistical operator formulation. Both formulations are extended up to infinite order of an external force in compact forms and their relationship is clarified through a direct transformation.
