On the Conversion of Work into Heat: Microscopic Models and Macroscopic Equations
Tomasz Komorowski, Joel Lebowitz, Stefano Olla +1
We summarize and extend some of the results obtained recently for the microscopic and macroscopic behavior of a pinned harmonic chain, with random velocity flips at Poissonian time…
Non-perturbative Solution of the 1d Schrodinger Equation Describing Photoemission from a Sommerfeld model Metal by an Oscillating Field
Ovidiu Costin, Rodica Costin, Ian Jauslin +1
We analyze non-perturbatively the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation describing the emission of electrons from a model metal surface by a classical oscillating electric field. Pl…
Heat flow in a periodically forced, thermostatted chain II
Tomasz Komorowski, Joel L. Lebowitz, Stefano Olla
We derive a macroscopic heat equation for the temperature of a pinned harmonic chain subject to a periodic force at its right side and in contact with a heat bath at its left side.…
Scaling limit of a generalized contact process
Logan Chariker, Anna De Masi, Joel L. Lebowitz +1
We derive macroscopic equations for a generalized contact process that is inspired by a neuronal integrate and fire model on the lattice . The states at each lattice…
Statistical mechanics of Coulomb systems: From electrons and nuclei to atoms and molecules
Joel L. Lebowitz
This article is dedicated to Elliott Lieb in celebration of his 90th birthday. I recount briefly some history of our joint work on the existence of the thermodynamic limit for Coul…
Entropy growth during free expansion of an ideal gas
Subhadip Chakraborti, Abhishek Dhar, Sheldon Goldstein +2
To illustrate Boltzmann's construction of an entropy function that is defined for a microstate of a macroscopic system, we present here the simple example of the free expansion of…
