Three detailed fluctuation theorems
Massimiliano Esposito, Christian Van den Broeck
The total entropy production of a trajectory can be split into an adiabatic and a non-adiabatic contribution, deriving respectively from the breaking of detailed balance via nonequ…
An Upper Limit on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background of Cosmological Origin
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration
A stochastic background of gravitational waves is expected to arise from a superposition of a large number of unresolved gravitational-wave sources of astrophysical and cosmologica…
Finite time thermodynamics for a single level quantum dot
Massimiliano Esposito, Ryoichi Kawai, Katja Lindenberg +1
We investigate the finite time thermodynamics of a single-level fermion system interacting with a thermal reservoir through a tunneling junction. The optimal protocol to extract th…
Searches for gravitational waves from known pulsars with S5 LIGO data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +678
We present a search for gravitational waves from 116 known millisecond and young pulsars using data from the fifth science run of the LIGO detectors. For this search ephemerides ov…
Entropy production as correlation between system and reservoir
Massimiliano Esposito, Katja Lindenberg, Christian Van den Broeck
We derive an exact (classical and quantum) expression for the entropy production of a finite system placed in contact with one or several finite reservoirs each of which is initial…
Search for gravitational-wave bursts associated with gamma-ray bursts using data from LIGO Science Run 5 and Virgo Science Run 1
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +665
We present the results of a search for gravitational-wave bursts associated with 137 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that were detected by satellite-based gamma-ray experiments during the…
Extracting chemical energy by growing disorder: Efficiency at maximum power
Massimiliano Esposito, Katja Lindenberg, Christian Van den Broeck
We consider the efficiency of chemical energy extraction from the environment by the growth of a copolymer made of two constituent units in the entropy-driven regime. We show that…
Cosmography with the Einstein Telescope
B. S. Sathyaprakash, Bernard Schutz, Chris Van Den Broeck
Einstein Telescope (ET) is a 3rd generation gravitational-wave (GW) detector that is currently undergoing a design study. ET can detect millions of compact binary mergers up to red…
Entropy production and the arrow of time
Juan M. R. Parrondo, Christian van den Broeck, Ryoichi Kawai
We present an exact relationship between the entropy production and the distinguishability of a process from its time-reverse, quantified by the relative entropy between forward an…
Universality of efficiency at maximum power
Massimiliano Esposito, Katja Lindenberg, Christian Van den Broeck
We investigate the efficiency of power generation by thermo-chemical engines. For strong coupling between the particle and heat flows and in the presence of a left-right symmetry i…
