The limit of small entropy production is reached in relaxing systems long after preparation, and in stationary driven systems in the limit of small driving power. Surprisingly, for extended systems this limit is not in general the…

Understanding how systems respond to external perturbations is fundamental to statistical physics. For systems far from equilibrium, a general framework for response remains elusive. While progress has been made on the linear response of…
In this paper, we describe an experimental investigation into the effect of passivation layer thickness on heat dissipation between a quartz substrate and liquid helium. We have observed that by depositing SiN from 0 to 240 nm, the Kapitza…

For studies on thermalization of an isolated quantum many-body system, the fundamental issue is to determine whether a given system thermalizes or not. However, most studies tested only a small number of observables, and it was unclear…
Elastic interfaces display scale-invariant geometrical fluctuations at sufficiently large lengthscales. Their asymptotic static roughness then follows a power-law behavior, whose associated exponent provides a robust signature of the…
