Distribution of Microscopic Energy Flux in Equilibrium State (2007)

Abstract
The distribution function P(j) of the microscopic energy flux, j, in equilibrium state is studied. It is observed that P(j) has a broad peak in small j regime and a stretched-exponential decay for large j. The peak structure originates in a potential advection term and energy transfer term between the particles. The stretched exponential tail comes from the momentum energy advection term..
