    Derivation In A Nonequilibrium Ensemble Formalism Of A Far-reaching Generalization Of A Quantum Boltzmann Theory

    No full text
    Within the framework of the nonequilibrium statistical ensemble formalism provided by the nonequilibrium statistical operator method, we derive a quantum Boltzmann-style transport theory of a broad scope. This is done by choosing the single- and two-particle dynamical density operators as the basic informational-statistical variables. The equations of evolution for their average values over the nonequilibrium ensemble, the nonequilibrium-reduced Dirac-Landau-Bogoliubov-type density matrices, are obtained. From the resulting generalized nonlinear quantum transport theory, after resorting to perturbative-like expansions, a far-reaching generalization of Boltzmann equation for the single-particle distribution function is derived. A type of traditional Boltzmann equation follows after using stringent approximations, whose limits of validity are evaluated.2841140160Lebowitz, L.L., Montroll, E.W., (1983) Studies in Statistical Mechanics X.

    Mesoscopic Hydro-thermodynamics Of Phonons In Semiconductors: Heat Transport In Iii-nitrides

    No full text
    It is presented a generalized hydro-thermodynamics (called mesoscopic hydro-thermodynamics MHT) of phonons in semiconductors, driven away from equilibrium by external forces, derived by the method of moments from a generalized Peierls-Boltzmann kinetic equation built in the framework of a non-equilibrium statistical ensemble formalism. The resulting MHT involves the enormous set of coupled evolution equations for the densities of the quasi-particles (phonons) and their energy together with their fluxes of all orders. The handling of them requires the introduction of a contraction of description what defines MHT's of different orders. We illustrate the matter analyzing heat transport by phonons in GaN within the framework of a MHT of first order to obtain a generalized Guyer-Krumhansl equation from which it is analyzed the effect of geometry on the heat transport. It is described the influence of size (from bulk to nanometric scales) on the reduction of the thermal conductivity and the improving of the figure of merit of thermoelectric devices. © 2013 EDP Sciences, SIF, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.865Castelvecchi, D., Collins, G.P., Fischetti, M., Mirsky, S., Moyer, M., Musser, G., Soares, C., Wong, K., (2010) Scientific American, 302, p. 68Cahill, D.G., Ford, W.K., Goodson, K.E., Mahan, G.D., Majumdar, A., Maris, H.J., Merlin, R., Phillpot, S.R., (2003) J.

    Considerations Of Fröhlich's Bose-einstein-like Condensation

    No full text
    The so-called Fröhlich effect - consisting of a conjectured coherent behavior of boson-like excitations in biological and molecular polymers - is fully derived and analyzed in terms of a thermo-mechanical theory. This is the so-called informational statistical thermodynamics, based on a generalization of Gibbs statistical theory to systems far from equilibrium. Moreover, it is shown that when double (or multiple) processes of excitation of the boson system are possible there follows a positive-feedback phenomenon that greatly favors and enhances the effect. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.2382-3206211Eichwald, C.F., (1995) Phys.

    On A Generalized Gibbs-boltzmann Ensemble Formalism For Dissipative Systems

    No full text
    The Nonequilibrium Statistical Operator Method, constructed on the basis of a generalized Gibbs-Boltzmann ensemble formalism, is gaining prominence as an approach to problems in statistical mechanics of nonequilibrium and nonlinear (dissipative) systems. In this paper, we consider the case of a generalized nonequilibrium grand-canonical ensemble. Besides the traditional densities of energy and particle number, this construction requires the introduction of the associated nonconserving dissipative fluxes of all orders. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

    A Nonequilibrium Statistical Ensemble Formalism: Maxent-nesom: Basic Concepts, Construction, Application, Open Questions And Criticisms

    No full text
    We describe a particular approach for the construction of a nonequilibrium statistical ensemble formalism for the treatment of dissipative many-body systems. This is the so-called Nonequilibrium Statistical Operator Method, based on the seminal and fundamental ideas set forward by Boltzmann and Gibbs. The existing approaches can be unified under a unique variational principle, namely, MaxEnt, which we consider here. The main six basic steps that are at the foundations of the formalism are presented and the fundamental concepts are discussed. The associated nonlinear quantum kinetic theory and the accompanying Statistical Thermodynamics (the Informational Statistical Thermodynamics) are very briefly described. The corresponding response function theory for systems away from equilibrium allows to connected the theory with experiments, and some examples are summarized; there follows a good agreement between theory and experimental data in the cases in which the latter are presently available. We also present an overview of some conceptual questions and associated criticisms.142831893264Oreskes, N., Shrader-Frechette, K., Beltz, K., (1994) Science, 263, p. 641Penrose, O., (1979) Rep. Prog.

    Positive-feedback-enhanced Fröhlich's Bose-einstein-like Condensation In Biosystems

    No full text
    We present a mechanostatistical study of the so-called Fröhlich effect, namely nonthermal amplification of polar vibrations leading to complex behavior in biosystems, like biopolymers and large aggregates of macromolecules. Fröhlich condensation is considered to be of relevance for a certain class of biological processes, in particular in connection with the problem of long-range propagation of signals at physiological temperature. Resorting to a thermomechanical theory appropriate to deal with irreversible processes in systems far from equilibrium, earlier results are extended. We perform an analysis of the case when production of a double excitation of polar vibrations, generated by the action of an external pumping source of metabolic energy, is possible. It is shown that, when this is the case, the process involves a positive feedback mechanism that greatly facilitates and enhances the phenomenon of Fröhlich's condensation, and consequently the possible accompanying biological processes. The results are discussed and eventual connection with experimental observations pointed out. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.662177187Zubarev, D.N., (1974) Nonequilibrium Statistical Thermodynamics, , Consultants Bureau, New YorkNeravnovesnaia, (1971) Statisticheskaia Termodinamika, , ldz.

    Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics Of Complex Systems: An Overview

    No full text
    The ensemble formalism has been extremely successful in the handling of the grandiose theoretical scheme of statistical mechanics and thermodynamics initiated by Maxwell, Boltzmann and Gibbs, which has been given concrete and consistent foundations to the study of the many situations present in condensed-matter physics. However, its use is hampered when dealing with certain complex phenomena for which the researcher may not have an access to the information on all the constraints relevant to the problem in hands (so-called hidden constraints), which leads to poor predictions. In an attempt to improve predictions there have been introduced, beginning in the past 1950s, and pioneered by P. Lèvy in the 1930s, auxiliary approaches which attempt to assuage the difficulty, but at the price of not being fully consistent and depending on free parameters. This is done in the framework of the variational (extremum principle) approach in statistical mechanics founded on information theory. In it, the general and well-established Boltzmann-Gibbs canonical scheme follows from maximization with given constraints of Gibbs-Boltzmann-Shannon information-theoretic entropy (better called measure of uncertainty of information) : it is considered to be the only consistent probability measure of information. The other (say non-canonical or heterotypical) auxiliary approaches are based on replacing GBS information-theoretic entropy by others, which are used to derive non-conventional probability distributions for non-equilibrium systems. We present a detailed description of their construction and a clarification of their scope, interpretation and utility. Also, resorting to the particular case of Renyi's approach the construction of a non-equilibrium ensemble formalism is described. The non-conventional distribution functions of fermions and bosons are discussed. The use of the formalism is illustrated via the analysis of experimental results in the case of fractal-like structured systems. Also a purely theoretical analysis is done in the cases of an ideal gas and of radiation comparing the conventional and non-conventional approaches. In all of these situations it is discussed which are the difficulties involved (hidden constraints in an insufficient description) which require to resort to the non-conventional approach, and what determines the value of the parameter(s) that the formalism introduces in each case, namely, its (their) dependence on the system characteristics and the experimental protocol. © Società Italiana di Fisica.30395157MONTROLL, E.W., SHLESINGER, M.F., (1983) J.

    Structured Ultrafast Carrier Drift Velocity In Photoexcited Zincblende Gan

    No full text
    A theoretical study is performed on the ultrafast transient transport properties of photoexcited carriers in zincblende GaN subjected to electric fields up to 120 kV/cm. Depending on the photoexcitation degree, the subpicosecond electron and heavy-hole drift velocity evolution towards the steady state presents maxima and minima, e.g. a structured transient. Since nonequilibrium phonon effects are not included, the structured ultrafast carrier drift velocity is explained through the crossover of the evolution curves for the transport and momentum relaxation times, whose definition is based on the nonequilibrium variables used to describe the system.338II/Gelmont, B., Kim, K., Shur, M., (1993) J.

    Thermodynamic Variables In The Context Of A Nonequilibrium Statistical Ensemble Approach

    Full text link
    We consider the question of the definition of thermodynamic-like variables in the context of a statistical thermodynamics, which is a large generalization of Gibbs statistical thermostatics and linear and local-equilibrium classical irreversible thermodynamics. It is based on a nonequilibrium ensemble approach known as the nonequilibrium statistical operator method. Some of these quasithermodynamic variables are characteristic of the nonequilibrium state and go to zero in the limit of local or global equilibrium, but others go over the thermodynamic variables that are present in such a limit. We consider in particular temperature-like variables for the different subsystems of the sample. For illustration we apply the theory to the study of optical properties of highly photoexcited plasma in semiconductors, following a good agreement between theory and experimental data. It is shown that high-resolution spectroscopy provides an excellent experimental testing ground for corroboration of the theoretical concepts, and a quite appropriate way for characterizing and measuring nonequilibrium thermodynamic-like variables. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.1071873837396Tisza, L., (1991) Thermodynamics: History and Philosophy, pp. 515-522. , edited by K.
