Work Fluctuations and Stochastic Resonance

We study Brownian particle motion in a double-well potential driven by an ac force. This system exhibits the phenomenon of stochastic resonance. Distribution of work done on the system over a drive period in the time asymptotic regime have been calculated. We show that fluctuations in the input energy or work done dominate the mean value. The mean value of work done over a period as a function of noise strength can also be used to characterise stochastic resonance in the system. We also discuss the validity of steady state fluctuation theorems in this particular system.

Response of random field Ising model driven by an external field

We study the dynamics of spin flipping at first order transitions in zero temperature two-dimensional random-field Ising model driven by an external field. We find a critical value of the disorder strength at which a discontinuous sharp jump in magnetization first occurs. We discuss growth morphology of the flipped-spin domains at and away from criticality.

Hysteresis in One-Dimensional Anti-Ferromagnetic Random-Field Ising Model at Zero-Temperature

We analyse hysteresis in a one-dimensional anti-ferromagnetic random field Ising model at zero-temperature. The random field is taken to have a rectangular distribution of width $2 Δ$ centered about the origin. A uniform applied field is varied slowly from $-\infty$ to $+\infty$ and back. Analytic expression for the hysteresis loop is obtained in the case $Δ\le |J|$, where $|J|$ is the strength of the nearest neighbor interaction.
