On the equivalence and optimality of transformations of diffusive systems
Davide Gabrielli, Giovanni Jona-Lasinio
In this paper we introduce, inspired by Clausius and developing the ideas of \cite{pre}, the concept of equivalence of transformations in non equilibrium theory of diffusive system…
Macroscopic fluctuation theory from a Lagrangian viewpoint and the Schrödinger problem
L. Bertini, D. Gabrielli, R. Chetrite +1
We formulate the Schrödinger problem for interacting particle systems in the hydrodynamical regime thus extending the standard setting of independent particles. This involves the l…
On Clausius' approach to entropy and analogies in non-equilibrium
Giovanni Jona-Lasinio
In his ninth memoir Clausius summarizes the two principles of thermodynamics as follows: "The whole mechanical theory of heat rests on two fundamental theorems: that of equivalence…
Quantitative analysis of Clausius inequality
L. Bertini, A. De Sole, D. Gabrielli +2
In the context of driven diffusive systems, for thermodynamic transformations over a large but finite time window, we derive an expansion of the energy balance. In particular, we c…
Binary mixtures of chiral gases
Carlo Presilla, Giovanni Jona-Lasinio
A possible solution of the well known paradox of chiral molecules is based on the idea of spontaneous symmetry breaking. At low pressure the molecules are delocalized between the t…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking and inversion-line spectroscopy in gas mixtures
Carlo Presilla, Giovanni Jona-Lasinio
According to quantum mechanics chiral molecules, that is molecules that rotate the polarization of light, should not exist. The simplest molecules which can be chiral have four or…
