The aging dynamics and the fluctuation-dissipation relation between the spontaneous diffusion induced by a random noise and the drift motion induced by a small stirring force are numerically investigated in a 3D schematic model of…
We investigate the dynamics of a massive tracer particle coupled to an interacting active bath, modeled as a harmonic chain of overdamped active particles analytically, with an aim to understand the impact of bath interactions and activity…
We give a brief review of violations of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) in out-of-equilibrium systems; in mean field scenarios the corresponding fluctuation-dissipation (FD) plots can, in the limit of long times, be used to define…
Biologically driven non-equilibrium fluctuations are often characterized by their non-Gaussianity or by an "effective temperature", which is frequency dependent and higher than the ambient temperature. We address these two measures…
Thermal fluctuations constantly and evenly excite all vibrational modes in an equilibrium crystal. As the temperature rises, these fluctuations promote the formation of defects and eventually melting. In active solids, the self-propulsion…
Within both slightly non--extensive statistics and related numerical model, a picture is elaborated to treat self--similar time series as a thermodynamic system. Thermodynamic--type characteristics relevant to temperature, pressure,…
We study a stationary state of a single self-propelled, athermal particle in linear and quadratic external potentials. The self-propulsion is modeled as a fluctuating force evolving according to the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, independently…
We present experiments on several distinct effective temperatures in a granular system at a sequence of increasing packing densities and at a sequence of decreasing driving rates. This includes single-grain measurements based on the…
Active matter and driven systems exhibit statistical fluctuations in density and particle positions, providing an indirect indicator of dissipation across multiple length and time scales. Here, we quantitatively relate these measurable…
The application of the conventional theory of macroparameter fluctuations has been shown to go beyond the framework of the thermodynamic description in a number of cases. The principles of the theory of quantum-thermal fluctuations of…
We investigate non-equilibrium behavior of driven dissipative systems, using the model presented in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 240601 (2004)]. We solve the non-Boltzmann steady state energy distribution and the temporal evolution to it, and find…
An active bath, made of self-propelling units, is a nonequilibrium medium in which the Einstein relation $D=\mu k_B T$ between the mobility $\mu$ and the diffusivity $D$ of a tracer particle cannot be expected to hold a priori. We consider…
Since Albert Einstein's seminal 1905-paper on Brownian motion, the temperature of fluids and gases of known viscosity can be deduced from observations of the fluctuations of small suspended probe particles. We summarize recent…
Active Brownian engines rectify energy from reservoirs composed of self-propelling non-equilibrium molecules into work. We consider a class of such engines based on an underdamped Brownian particle trapped in a power-law potential. The…
We describe some interesting effects observed during the evolution of nonequilibrium systems, using domain growth and glassy systems as examples. We breafly discuss the analytical tools that have been recently used to study the dynamics of…
Many kinds of active particles, such as bacteria or active colloids, move in a thermostatted fluid by means of self-propulsion. Energy injected by such a non-equilibrium force is eventually dissipated as heat in the thermostat. Since…
Under the Ansatz that the occupation times of a system with finitely many states are given by the Gibbs distribution, an effective temperature is uniquely determined (up to a choice of scale), and may be computed de novo, without any…
The response of thermodynamic systems perturbed out of an equilibrium steady-state is described by the reciprocal and the fluctuation-dissipation relations. The so-called fluctuation theorems extended the study of fluctuations far beyond…
Three different definitions of effective temperature -- $\mathcal{T}_{\rm k}$, $\mathcal{T}_{\rm i}$ and $\mathcal{T}_{\rm r}$ related to kinetic theory, system entropy and response theory, respectively -- are applied in the description of…
We show that a generalized fluctuation-dissipation relation applies upon instantaneously increasing the temperature of a deeply supercooled liquid. This has the same two-step shape of the relation found upon cooling the liquid, but with…
