Work probability distribution in systems driven out of equilibrium
A. Imparato, L. Peliti
We derive the differential equation describing the time evolution of the work probability distribution function of a stochastic system which is driven out of equilibrium by the man…
Work distribution and path integrals in general mean-field systems
A. Imparato, L. Peliti
We consider a mean-field system described by a general collective variable , driven out of equilibrium by the manipulation of a parameter . Given a general dynamics compatibl…
Shape fluctuations and elastic properties of two-component bilayer membranes
Alberto Imparato, Julian C. Shillcock, Reinhard Lipowsky
The elastic properties of two-component bilayer membranes are studied using a coarse grain model for amphiphilic molecules. The two species of amphiphiles considered here differ on…
Work probability distribution in single molecule experiments
Alberto Imparato, Luca Peliti
We derive and solve a differential equation satisfied by the probability distribution of the work done on a single biomolecule in a mechanical unzipping experiment. The unzipping i…
