Abstract
In this paper, we study exactly the thermal conductance for a low dimensional system represented by two coupled massive Brownian particles, both directly and via a Green-Kubo expression. Both approaches give exactly the same result. We also obtain exactly the steady state probability distribution for that system by means of time-averaging.
