Effective Gibbs state for averaged observables

Abstract

We consider the effective Gibbs state for averaged observables. In particular, we perturbatively calculate the correspondent effective Hamiltonian. We show that there are a lot of similarities between this effective Hamiltonian and the mean force Hamiltonian. We also discuss a thermodynamic role of the information loss due to restriction of our measurement capabilities to such averaged observables.
