Stochastic Thermodynamics : Entropy Production

Rajesh will also be giving this week’s talk. He will give a quick summary of his last talk and then go through the following paper by Udo Seifert in detail:

Seifert, Udo. “Entropy production along a stochastic trajectory and an integral fluctuation theorem.” Physical review letters 95.4 (2005): 040602.

Time and venue for the Discussion:

Time: Saturday (August 26, 2017), 2 PM
Venue: 326/327

Here is the slides from the discussion last week.
