Transport of Forced Quantum Motors in the Strong Friction Limit
Lukasz Machura, Jerzy Luczka, Peter Talkner +1
The directed transport of an overdamped Brownian motor moving in a spatially periodic potential that lacks reflection symmetry (i.e. a ratchet potential) is studied when driven by…
Relative entropy, Haar measures and relativistic canonical velocity distributions
Jörn Dunkel, Peter Talkner, Peter Hänggi
The thermodynamic maximum principle for the Boltzmann-Gibbs-Shannon (BGS) entropy is reconsidered by combining elements from group and measure theory. Our analysis starts by noting…
Absolute negative mobility induced by thermal equilibrium fluctuations
L. Machura, M. Kostur, P. Talkner +2
A novel transport phenomenon is identified that is induced by inertial Brownian particles which move in simple one-dimensional, symmetric periodic potentials under the influence of…
Relativistic diffusion processes and random walk models
Jörn Dunkel, Peter Talkner, Peter Hänggi
The nonrelativistic standard model for a continuous, one-parameter diffusion process in position space is the Wiener process. As well-known, the Gaussian transition probability den…
Accumulating Particles at the Boundaries of a Laminar Flow
Michael Schindler, Peter Talkner, Marcin Kostur +1
The accumulation of small particles is analyzed in stationary flows through channels of variable width at small Reynolds number. The combined influence of pressure, viscous drag an…
Escape rates in periodically driven Markov processes
Michael Schindler, Peter Talkner, Peter Hänggi
We present an approximate analytical expression for the escape rate of time-dependent driven stochastic processes with an absorbing boundary such as the driven leaky integrate-and-…
