"This book combines empirical and methodological research to study the role of time comprehensively from an institutional and management perspective, a technological perspective, and a pedagogical perspective"--Provided by publisher.

Single-molecule force spectroscopy experiments, and a number of other physical systems, are governed by thermally activated transitions out of a metastable state under the action of a steadily increasing external force. The main observable in such experiments is the distribution of the forces,...

The Brownian motion of a single, classical particle, meandering in a zigzag-shaped, two-dimensional potential pipeline is addressed. When driven away from thermal equilibrium by an unbiased, alternating force of moderate frequency, the particle exhibits the phenomenon of absolute negative...

The relation between mean first passage times T and transition rates Γ in noisy dynamical systems with metastable states is investigated. It is shown that the inverse mean first passage time to the separatrix of the noiseless system may deviate from twice the rate not only because in general...
