Prediction and Retrodiction in Statistical Mechanics from the Principle of Maximum Caliber

Ignacio Tapia, Gonzalo Gutiérrez, Sergio Davis

A statistical, path-dependent framework to describe time-dependent macroscopic theories using the Principle of Maximum Caliber is presented. By means of this procedure, it is possi…

A general statistical model for waiting times until collapse of a system

Vivianne Olguín-Arias, Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Gutiérrez

The distribution of waiting times until the occurrence of a critical event is a crucial statistical problem across several disciplines in Science. In this work we present a statist…

Extended correlations in the critical superheated solid

Vivianne Olguín-Arias, Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Gutiérrez

Metastable states in first-order phase transitions reveal interesting behavior about a wide range of systems in statistical mechanics, including spin systems, cellular automata and…

Origin of the anomalous semiconducting behaviour in dense lithium

Mauricio A. Flores, Gonzalo Gutiérrez

Experimentally, it is known that lithium undergoes a metal to semiconductor transition at about 80 GPA and a reentrant semiconductor to metal transition near 120 GPA. This unusual…

Microcanonical Monte Carlo approach for computing melting curves by atomistic simulations

Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Gutiérrez

We report microcanonical Monte Carlo simulations of melting and superheating of a generic, Lennard-Jones system starting from the crystalline phase. The isochoric curve, the meltin…

Emergence of Tsallis statistics as a consequence of invariance

Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Gutiérrez

For non-equilibrium systems in a steady state we present two necessary and sufficient conditions for the emergence of -canonical ensembles, also known as Tsallis statistics. The…

Applications of the divergence theorem in Bayesian inference and MaxEnt

Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Gutiérrez

Given a probability density , where represents continuous degrees of freedom and a set of parameters, it is possible to construct a general…

Temperature is not an observable in superstatistics

Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Gutiérrez

Superstatistics (Physica A 322, 267-275, 2003) is a formalism that attempts to explain the presence of distributions other than the Boltzmann-Gibbs distributions in Nature, typical…

Slipping on an Arbitrary Surface with Friction

Felipe González-Cataldo, Gonzalo Gutiérrez, Julio Yañez

The motion of a block slipping on a surface is a well studied problem for flat and circular surfaces, but the necessary conditions for the block to leave (or not) the surface deser…

Behavior of grains in contact with the wall of a silo during the initial instants of a discharge-driven collapse

C. Colonnello, L. I. Reyes, E. Clément +1

We study experimentally gravity-driven granular discharges of laboratory scale silos, during the initial instants of the discharge. We investigate deformable wall silos around thei…

Simulation of grains in a vibrated U-tube without interstitial fluid

J. R. Darias, I. Sánchez, G. Gutiérrez +1

We present a computational study using Molecular Dynamics of the development of an accumulation of grains in one side of a two dimensional U-tube under vertical vibrations. Studyin…

Granular instability in a vibrated U tube

I. Sánchez, J. R. Darias, R. Paredes +2

We study experimentally the collective motion of grains inside a U shaped tube undergoing vertical oscillations, and we develop a very simple quantitative model that captures relev…

A mechanism for air induced fluidization in vibrated granular beds

L. I. Reyes, I. Sánchez, G. Gutiérrez

We present a new mechanism for the fluidization of a vibrated granular bed in the presence of interstitial air. We show that the air flow induced across the bed, as the gap in the…
