We develop a stochastic model for the charge fluctuations on a microscopic dust particle resting on a surface exposed to plasma. We find in steady state that the fluctuations are normally distributed with a standard deviation that is…

Thermal fluctuations in non-equilibrium steady states generically lead to power law decay of correlations for conserved quantities. Embedded bodies which constrain fluctuations in turn experience fluctuation induced forces. We compute these…

When a physical system evolves in a thermal bath at a constant temperature, it arrives eventually to an equilibrium state whose properties are independent of the kinetic parameters and of the precise evolution scenario. This is generically…
