Inferring potential landscapes from noisy trajectories
TL;DR: A Bayesian method to infer potentials of arbitrary shape alongside measurement noise is developed and structured kernel interpolation is introduced to the Natural Sciences which allows us to extend the authors' analysis to large data sets.

Direct measurement of a nonequilibrium system entropy using a feedback trap
Momčilo Gavrilov,John Bechhoefer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the average work required to erase a fraction of a bit of information is measured using a feedback force calculated as a gradient of a potential function, effectively creating a virtual potential.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
When Wall-hindered Diffusion Dynamics Becomes Non-Gaussian
TL;DR: In this paper, a feedback-controlled piezo vertical stage tracks the position of a Brownian colloidal sphere near a flat wall to study the correlated diffusive properties of the sphere.

From rods to blobs: When geometry is irrelevant for heat diffusion
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the response function between an oscillating heater and temperature probe has a smooth crossover between a low-frequency, "lumped-element" regime where the system behaves as an electrical capacitor and a high-frequency regime dominated by the spatial dependence of the temperature field.
