Is it possible to experimentally verify the fluctuation relation? A review of theoretical motivations and numerical evidence
arXiv:cond-mat/0612019 · doi:10.1088/1742-5468/2007/02/P02008
Abstract
The theoretical motivations to perform experimental tests of the stationary state fluctuation relation are reviewed. The difficulties involved in such tests, evidenced by numerical simulations, are also discussed.
