Title: | Universal theory of efficiency fluctuations | Authors: | Verley, Gatien WILLAERT, Tim VAN DEN BROECK, Christian Esposito, Massimiliano |
Issue Date: | 2014 | Publisher: | AMER PHYSICAL SOC | Source: | PHYSICAL REVIEW E, 90 (5) | Abstract: | Using the fluctuation theorem supplemented with geometric arguments, we derive universal features of the (long-time) efficiency fluctuations for thermal and isothermal machines operating under steady or periodic driving, close or far from equilibrium. In particular, the probabilities for observing the reversible efficiency and the least likely efficiency are identical to those of the same machine working under the time-reversed driving. For time-symmetric drivings, this reversible and the least probable efficiency coincide. | Notes: | [Verley, Gatien; Esposito, Massimiliano] Univ Luxembourg, L-1511 Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
