The thermal response of nonequilibrium systems requires the knowledge of concepts that go
beyond entropy production. This is showed for systems obeying overdamped Langevin …

We analyze experimental data obtained from an electrical circuit having components at
different temperatures, showing how to predict its response to temperature variations. This …

The effect of a change of noise amplitudes in overdamped diffusive systems is linked to their
unperturbed behavior by means of a nonequilibrium fluctuation–response relation. This …

Microscopic colloidal particles are often used as probes to study the non-equilibrium activity
of living matter or other complex systems. In many of these contexts hydrodynamic …

The linear response to temperature variations is well characterised for equilibrium systems
but a similar theory is not available, for example, for inertial heat conducting systems, whose …

This thesis collects the published papers of ours on the subject of classical nonequilibrium
statistical mechanics. Mainly stochastic systems are considered, with special regard to …
