We analyse a non-equilibrium exclusion process in which particles are created and annihilated in pairs and hop to the the right or to the left with different transition rates, $p$ and $q$, respectively. We have studied the dynamics of a…

Kinetic models of polyatomic gas typically account for the internal degrees of freedom at the level of the two-particle distribution function. However, close to the hydrodynamic limit, the internal (rotational) degrees of freedom tend to be…

The BGK model has been widely used in place of the Boltzmann equation because of the qualitatively satisfactory results it provides at relatively low computational cost. There is, however, a major drawback to the BGK model: The hydrodynamic…

The probability distribution of the total entropy production in the non-equilibrium steady state follows a symmetry relation called the fluctuation theorem. When a certain part of the system is masked or hidden, it is difficult to infer the…
