Abstract

Consider anomalous energy spread in solid phases, i.e., , as induced by a small initial excess energy perturbation distribution away from equilibrium. The associated total thermal equilibrium heat flux autocorrelation function is shown to obey rigorously the intriguing relation, , where is the specific volumetric heat capacity. Its integral assumes a time-local Helfand-moment relation; i.e. , where the chosen cut-off time is determined by the maximal signal velocity for heat transfer. Given the premise that the averaged nonequilibrium heat flux is governed by an anomalous heat conductivity, energy diffusion scaling necessarily determines a corresponding anomalous thermal conductivity scaling behavior.
