Recovery of free energy branches in single molecule experiments
Ivan Junier, Alessandro Mossa, Maria Manosas +1
We present a method for determining the free energy of coexisting states from irreversible work measurements. Our approach is based on a fluctuation relation that is valid for diss…

Condensation transition in DNA-polyaminoamide dendrimer fibers studied using optical tweezers
F. Ritort, S. Mihardja, S. B. Smith +1
When mixed together, DNA and polyaminoamide (PAMAM) dendrimers form fibers that condense into a compact structure. We use optical tweezers to pull condensed fibers and investigate…

Intermittency of glassy relaxation and the emergence of a non-equilibrium spontaneous measure in the aging regime
A. Crisanti, F Ritort
We consider heat exchange processes between non-equilibrium aging systems (in their activated regime) and the thermal bath in contact. We discuss a scenario where two different hea…
