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…

Efficiency statistics at all times: Carnot limit at finite power

Matteo Polettini, Gatien Verley, Massimiliano Esposito

We derive the statistics of the efficiency under the assumption that thermodynamic fluxes fluctuate with normal law, parametrizing it in terms of time, macroscopic efficiency, and…

Energy versus information based estimations of dissipation using a pair of magnetic colloidal particles

S. Tusch, A. Kundu, G. Verley +5

Using the framework of stochastic thermodynamics, we present an experimental study of a doublet of magnetic colloidal particles which is manipulated by a time-dependent magnetic fi…

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…

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…
