Pareto fronts and trade-off relations from exact multi-objective optimization of thermal machines
José A. Almanza-Marrero, Ãdgar Roldán, Gonzalo Manzano
Thermal machines are physical systems that, when fueled by input energy, perform output tasks such as heat pumping or the production of work. Their performance is characterized wit…

Human perceptual decision making of nonequilibrium fluctuations
Aybüke Durmaz, Yonathan Sarmiento, Gianfranco Fortunato +4
To better characterize the statistical processes underlying human decision-making, we performed experiments where human participants visualized fluctuations of physical nonequilibr…
