Comment on "Generalized exclusion processes: Transport coefficients"

T. Becker, K. Nelissen, B. Cleuren +2

In a recent paper Arita et al. [Phys. Rev. E 90, 052108 (2014)] consider the transport properties of a class of generalized exclusion processes. Analytical expressions for the tran…

Diffusion of interacting particles in discrete geometries: equilibrium and dynamical properties

T. Becker, K. Nelissen, B. Cleuren +2

We expand on a recent study of a lattice model of interacting particles [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 110601 (2013)]. The adsorption isotherm and equilibrium fluctuations in particle numb…

Universal theory of efficiency fluctuations

Gatien Verley, Tim Willaert, Christian Van den Broeck +1

Using the fluctuation theorem supplemented with geometric arguments, we derive universal features of the (long-time) efficiency fluctuations for thermal and isothermal machines ope…

Descending from infinity: Convergence of tailed distributions

Christian Van den Broeck, Upendra Harbola, Raul Toral +1

We investigate the relaxation of long-tailed distributions under stochastic dynamics that do not support such tails. Linear relaxation is found to be a borderline case in which lon…

Advanced Virgo: a 2nd generation interferometric gravitational wave detector

F. Acernese, M. Agathos, K. Agatsuma +231

Advanced Virgo is the project to upgrade the Virgo interferometric detector of gravitational waves, with the aim of increasing the number of observable galaxies (and thus the detec…

Adsorption and desorption in confined geometries: a discrete hopping model

T. Becker, K. Nelissen, B. Cleuren +2

We study the adsorption and desorption kinetics of interacting particles moving on a one-dimensional lattice. Confinement is introduced by limiting the number of particles on a lat…

Testing the no-hair theorem with black hole ringdowns using TIGER

J. Meidam, M. Agathos, C. Van Den Broeck +2

The Einstein Telescope (ET), a proposed third-generation gravitational wave observatory, would enable tests of the no-hair theorem by looking at the characteristic frequencies and…

Echo states for detailed fluctuation theorems

T. Becker, T. Willaert, B. Cleuren +1

Detailed fluctuation theorems are statements about the probability distribution for the stochastic entropy production along a trajectory. It involves the consideration of a suitabl…

Fluctuation symmetry in a two-state Markov model

Tim Willaert, Bart Cleuren, Christian Van den Broeck

We show that the scaled cumulant generating and large deviation function, associated to a two-state Markov process involving two processes, obey a symmetry relation reminiscent of…

The unlikely Carnot efficiency

Gatien Verley, Tim Willaert, Christian Van den Broeck +1

The efficiency of an heat engine is traditionally defined as the ratio of its average output work over its average input heat. Its highest possible value was discovered by Carnot i…

Ensemble and Trajectory Thermodynamics: A Brief Introduction

Christian Van den Broeck, Massimiliano Esposito

We revisit stochastic thermodynamics for a system with discrete energy states in contact with a heat and particle reservoir.

Work statistics in stochastically driven systems

Gatien Verley, Christian Van den Broeck, Massimiliano Esposito

We identify the conditions under which a stochastic driving inducing energy changes on a system coupled to a thermal bath can be treated as a work source. When these conditions are…

Reconstruction of the gravitational wave signal during the Virgo science runs and independent validation with a photon calibrator

Virgo collaboration, T. Accadia, F. Acernese +193

The Virgo detector is a kilometer-scale interferometer for gravitational wave detection located near Pisa (Italy). About 13 months of data were accumulated during four science runs…

Stochastic functionals and fluctuation theorem for the multi-kangaroo process

C. Van den Broeck, R. Toral

We introduce multi-kangaroo Markov processes and provide a general procedure for evaluating a certain type of stochastic functionals. We calculate analytically the large deviation…
