Long time coarse grain leads to large deviation statistics and statistical mechanics
Shibata, Hiroshi - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 326 (2003) 1, pp. 25-36
The long time coarse grain of the observables often shows the large deviation statistics. A reason for this is that the long time coarse grained observables lose their correlations or memories. The establishment of the large deviation statistics leads to the statistical mechanics. In this paper,...

Low-dimensional dynamics in observables from complex and higher-dimensional systems
Baptista, Murilo S; Caldas, Iberê L; Baptista, Mauricio S - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 287 (2000) 1, pp. 91-99
We analyze fluctuating observables of high-dimensional systems as the New York Stock Market S&P 500 index, the amino-acid sequence in the M. genitalium DNA, the maximum temperature of the San Francisco Bay area, and the toroidal magneto plasma potential. The probability measures of these...

Plasma turbulence in tokamaks
Caldas, Iberê L.; Heller, Maria Vittoria A.P.; Castro, … - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 257 (1998) 1, pp. 341-346
electrostatic turbulence induces anomalous particle transport that deteriorates the plasma confinement. We describe how to control … this effect, by decreasing plasma turbulence, with resonant magnetic perturbations that creates a Lagrangian diffusion of …
