2 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Today s Lecture Onsager Theory and the Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem Motivation from lecture 1 Derivation and discussion Application to nanomechanics and biodetectors

3 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Motivation So far we have only talked about thermodynamic and equilibrium consequences of conservation laws and broken symmetries. In macroscopic systems dissipation is important Dissipation is associated with the increase of entropy, and is outside of the scope of thermodynamics where entropy (or the appropriate thermodynamic potential) is maximized or minimized. Onsager, and later Callan, Greene, Kubo and others showed how to systematically treat systems near equilibrium

4 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Equilibrium under Energy Transfer J E Energy E 1 Energy E 2 Isolated system divided into two weakly coupled halves or subsystems. Initially the whole system is in thermodynamic equilibrium. Take the system away from equilibrium by transferring an energy E from one half to the other. For weak coupling the time scale for the relaxation will be correspondingly long.

5 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Dissipative Currents Temperature T 1 Temperature T 2 J E Equilibrium is given by the equality of the temperatures T 1 = T 2. Different temperatures gives a nonequilibrium state, and an energy current moving the system towards equilibrium. For small temperature differences δt = T 2 T 1 J E = K δt K is a kinetic coefficient or dissipation coefficient

6 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Slow Relaxation The temperatures of the subsystems will change at a rate proportional to the rate of change of energy Ṫ 1 = Ė 1 /C 1 = J E /C 1 Ṫ 2 = Ė 2 /C 2 = J E /C 2 where C i is the thermal capacity of subsystem i.

7 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Slow Relaxation The temperatures of the subsystems will change at a rate proportional to the rate of change of energy Ṫ 1 = Ė 1 /C 1 = J E /C 1 Ṫ 2 = Ė 2 /C 2 = J E /C 2 where C i is the thermal capacity of subsystem i. Since the relaxation between the systems is slow, each system may be taken as internally in equilibrium, so that C i is the equilibrium value of the specific heat.

Since the relaxation between the systems is slow, each system may be taken as internally in equilibrium, so that C i is the equilibrium value of the specific heat. Using J E = K δt gives with δṫ = (K /C)δT C 1 = C C 1 2

9 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Slow Relaxation The temperatures of the subsystems will change at a rate proportional to the rate of change of energy Ṫ 1 = Ė 1 /C 1 = J E /C 1 Ṫ 2 = Ė 2 /C 2 = J E /C 2 where C i is the thermal capacity of subsystem i. Since the relaxation between the systems is slow, each system may be taken as internally in equilibrium, so that C i is the equilibrium value of the specific heat. Using J E = K δt gives with δṫ = (K /C)δT C 1 = C C 1 2 This equation yields exponential relaxation with a time constant given by macroscopic quantities. τ = C/K

10 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Entropy Production Since the energy current is the process of the approach to equilibrium, the entropy must increase in this relaxation.

11 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Entropy Production Since the energy current is the process of the approach to equilibrium, the entropy must increase in this relaxation. Rate of change of entropy: Ṡ = Ṡ 1 (E 1 ) + Ṡ 2 (E 2 ) = 1 T 1 Ė T 2 Ė 2 J E δt/t 2 = K (δt/t ) 2

Rate of change of entropy: Ṡ = Ṡ 1 (E 1 ) + Ṡ 2 (E 2 ) = 1 T 1 Ė T 2 Ė 2 J E δt/t 2 = K (δt/t ) 2 Second law requires the kinetic coefficient K > 0

Expand the exponentials e β(h 0+ H) e β H 0(1 β H) so B(t) = B 0 β[ H B(t) 0 B 0 H 0 ] + O( H) 2 Here 0 denotes the ensemble average for a system with no perturbation, i.e., the distribution ρ 0 = e β H 0/Tre β H 0. In the unperturbed system the Hamiltonian is H 0 for all time, and averages such as B(t) 0 are time independent B 0.

46 Collective Effects in Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Physics: Lecture 5, April 14, Onsager Regression: Details (cont.) Expand the exponentials e β(h 0+ H) e β H 0(1 β H) so B(t) = B 0 β[ H B(t) 0 B 0 H 0 ] + O( H) 2 Here 0 denotes the ensemble average for a system with no perturbation, i.e., the distribution ρ 0 = e β H 0/Tre β H 0.
