Prigogine, the steady state of thermodynamically open system not too far from equilibrium approximately minimizes a certain functional which derives from entropy changes. Within the stochastic framework, this amounts to a variational principle for the leading correction term when expanding the stationary distribution around equilibrium. We argue that this principle is just a consequence of the structure of dynamical fluctuations in the sense of the Donsker-Varadhan theory; somewhat analogously to the Gibbs variational principle being intimately related with equilibrium fluctuations. A more general large deviation approach including current fluctuations further reveals connection between the far-from-equilibium breakdown of the entropy production principles and the appearance of time- symmetric-antisymmetric correlations. (Jointly with C. Maes and B. Wynants.)

Statistical mechanics is the application of statistics, which includes mathematical tools for dealing with large populations, to the field of mechanics http://schools-wikipedia.org/2006/wp/s/Statistical_mechanics.htm

Statistical mechanics 2006 Wikipedia CD Selection Statistical mechanics is the application of statistics , which includes mathematical tools for dealing with large populations, to the field of mechanics, which is concerned with the motion of particles or objects when subjected to a force. It provides a framework for relating the microscopic properties of individual atoms and molecules to the macroscopic or bulk properties of materials that can be observed in everyday life, therefore explaining thermodynamics as a natural result of statistics and mechanics (classical and quantum) at the microscopic level. In particular, it can be used to calculate the thermodynamic properties of bulk materials from the spectroscopic data of individual molecules. This ability to make macroscopic predictions based on microscopic properties is the main asset of statistical mechanics over thermodynamics . Both theories are governed by the second law of thermodynamics through the medium of entropy. However, Entropy in thermodynamics can only be known empirically, whereas in Statistical mechanics, it is a function of the distribution of the system on its micro-states. Fundamental postulate The fundamental postulate in statistical mechanics (also known as the equal a priori probability postulate ) is the following: p This postulate is necessary because it allows one to conclude that for a system at equilibrium, the thermodynamic state (macrostate) which could result from the largest number of microstates is also the most probable macrostate of the system.

Configuration integral (statistical mechanics) From VQWiki Public Jump to: navigation search by Loc Vu-Quoc The classical configuration integral , sometimes referred to as the configurational partition function , for a system with particles is defined as follows: where is the volume enclosing the particles, a constant defined as with being the Boltzmann constant the thermodynamic temperature the potential energy of interparticle forces, the positions in the 3-D space of the particles, with and the coordinate of the particle, and an infinitesimal volume. An example for the potential energy is the Lennard-Jones potential By setting , we have . Since both and have the dimension of energy, the integrand in Eq.(1) is dimensionless, and thus the configuration integral has the dimension of . For this reason, some authors use the non-dimensionalized configuration integral obtained by dividing Eq.(1) by , p.41; McComb (2004) , p.95. We begin to motivate by providing important applications of the configuration integral, then proceed to give a detailed derivation of Eq.(1) in a self-contained manner that does not require too many prerequisites Contents Motivation Disease research and drug design Classical partition function (sum-over-states) Physics of fluid turbulence ...

Contact Us NEWS Registration Desk will be open at Palau Maricel on Monday June 7th at 8:30am The Conference Program has been updated SCOPE The title of this forthcoming edition of the Sitges Conference will be "Energy Conversion: From Nanomachines to Renewable Sources'' . The general aim is to discuss recent advances in the investigation and implementation of energy conversion mechanisms in systems from the nanoscopic to the macroscopic scale. The topics covered by the conference include: nano-machines and their efficiency, molecular motors, biological pumps, fuel cells, biofuels, solar cells, energy optimization problems, climatic effects of the energy conversion and the thermodynamics and statistical mechanics foundations of energy conversion mechanisms. With the organization of this Conference, we intend to stimulate a discussion, between different scientific communities working in the general fields of physics, chemistry, engineering and biology, about the challenges to face in the area of energy conversion. In this way we would like to favor the interchange and cross-fertilization of ideas, and to deepen the understanding of the open questions in the field.

Frequently cited examples include the cell, a network of chemicals linked by chemical reactions, and the Internet, a network of routers and computers connected by physical links. While traditionally these systems have been modeled as random graphs, it is increasingly recognized that the topology and evolution of real networks are governed by robust organizing principles. This article reviews the recent advances in the field of complex networks, focusing on the statistical mechanics of network topology and dynamics. After reviewing the empirical data that motivated the recent interest in networks, the authors discuss the main models and analytical tools, covering random graphs, small-world and scale-free networks, the emerging theory of evolving networks, and the interplay between topology and the network’s robustness against failures and attacks.
