Statistical Mechanics for Athermal Fluctuation Non-Gaussian Noise in Physics / by Kiyoshi Kanazawa.

The author investigates athermal fluctuation from the viewpoints of statistical mechanics in this thesis. Stochastic methods are theoretically very powerful in describing fluctuation of thermodynamic quantities in small systems on the level of a single trajectory and have been recently developed on...
