Onsager coefficients in periodically driven systems
Karel Proesmans, Christian Van den Broeck
We evaluate the Onsager matrix for a system under time-periodic driving by considering all its Fourier components. By application of the second law, we prove that all the fluxes co…
Efficiency of Single Particle Engines
Karel Proesmans, Cedric Driesen, Bart Cleuren +1
We study the efficiency of a single particle Szilard and Carnot engine. Within a first order correction to the quasi-static limit, the work distribution is found to be Gaussian and…
Gravitational wave searches with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo
C. Van Den Broeck
Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo are expected to make the first direct detections of gravitational waves (GW) in the next several years. Possible types of GW emission include short…
Stochastic thermodynamics for kinetic equations
C. Van den Broeck, R. Toral
Stochastic thermodynamics is formulated for variables that are odd under time reversal. The invariance under spatial rotation of the collision rates due to the isotropy of the heat…
Constraining the neutron star equation of state with gravitational wave signals from coalescing binary neutron stars
Michalis Agathos, Jeroen Meidam, Walter Del Pozzo +5
Recently exploratory studies were performed on the possibility of constraining the neutron star equation of state (EOS) using signals from coalescing binary neutron stars, or neutr…
Testing General Relativity with Present and Future Astrophysical Observations
Emanuele Berti, Enrico Barausse, Vitor Cardoso +50
One century after its formulation, Einstein's general relativity has made remarkable predictions and turned out to be compatible with all experimental tests. Most of these tests pr…
