Venue
Nordita, Stockholm, Sweden
Scope
Stochastic Thermodynamics represents an exciting new research direction in statistical physics, which explores fundamental aspects of non-equilibrium processes. The developments summarized under this term may be characterized by the common idea to adapt and generalize concepts from equilibrium thermodynamics to the non-equilibrium realm, typically on the level of single particle trajectories monitored over the entire system evolution. This approach has proven to be quite powerful and produced results of remarkable generality —e.g. so-called fluctuation theorems— connecting the system behavior when driven out of equilibrium with its equilibrium properties. This program intends to bring together the experts in the field in order to discuss open questions and new ideas in a lively and intensive atmosphere provided at Nordita.
Format
We aim at having two presentations per day with plenty of time for discussions and project work in a relaxed atmosphere.
