Stochastic Thermodynamics: An Introduction

by Luca Peliti and Simone Pigolotti

The first comprehensive graduate-level introduction to stochastic thermodynamics

Stochastic thermodynamics is a well-defined subfield of statistical physics that aims to interpret thermodynamic concepts for systems ranging in size from a few to hundreds of nanometers, the behavior of which is inherently random due to thermal fluctuations. This growing field therefore describes the nonequilibrium dynamics of small systems, such...
