We re-derive the Nyquist theorem and Callen-Welton fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) as a consequence of detailed balance principle applied to a harmonic oscillator. The usage of electrical notions in the beginning makes the consideration understandable for every physicists. Perhaps it is the simplest derivation of these well-known theorems in statistical physics. The classical limit is understandable as a consequence of Waterston-Herapath equipartition theorem.

We use a relationship between response and correlation function in nonequilibrium systems to establish a connection between the heat production and the deviations from the equilibrium fluctuation-dissipation theorem. This scheme extends the Harada-Sasa formulation [Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 130602 (2005)], obtained for Langevin equations in steady states, as it also holds for transient regimes and for discrete jump processes involving small entropic changes. Moreover, a general formulation includes two times and the new concepts of two-time work, kinetic energy, and of a two-time heat exchange that can be related to a nonequilibrium effective temperature. Numerical simulations of a chain of anharmonic oscillators and of a model for a molecular motor driven by ATP hydrolysis illustrate these points.
The fluctuation dissipation theorem (FDT) is the basis for a microscopic description of the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter.By assuming the electromagnetic radiation in thermal equilibrium and the interaction in the linear response regime, the theorem interrelates the spontaneous fluctuations of microscopic variables with the kinetic coefficients that are responsible for energy dissipation.In the quantum form provided by Callen and Welton in their pioneer paper of 1951 for the case of conductors, electrical noise detected at the terminals of a conductor was given in terms of the spectral density of voltage fluctuations, $S_V({omega})$, and was related to the real part of its impedance, $Re[Z({omega})]$, by a simple relation.The drawbacks of this relation concern with: (I) the appearance of a zero point contribution which implies a divergence of the spectrum at increasing frequencies; (ii) the lack of detailing the appropriate equivalent-circuit of the impedance, (iii) the neglect of the Casimir effect associated with the quantum interaction between zero-point energy and boundaries of the considered physical system; (iv) the lack of identification of the microscopic noise sources beyond the temperature model. These drawbacks do not allow to validate the relation with experiments. By revisiting the FDT within a brief historical survey, we shed new light on the existing drawbacks by providing further properties of the theorem, focusing on the electrical noise of a two-terminal sample under equilibrium conditions. Accordingly, we will discuss the duality and reciprocity properties of the theorem, its applications to the ballistic transport regime, to the case of vacuum and to the case of a photon gas.
We introduce a simple prescription for calculating the spectra of thermal fluctuations of temperature-dependent quantities of the form $hat{delta T}(t)=int d^3vec{r} delta T(vec{r},t) q(vec{r})$. Here $T(vec{r}, t)$ is the local temperature at location $vec{r}$ and time $t$, and $q(vec{r})$ is an arbitrary function. As an example of a possible application, we compute the spectrum of thermo-refractive coating noise in LIGO, and find a complete agreement with the previous calculation of Braginsky, Gorodetsky and Vyatchanin. Our method has computational advantage, especially for non-regular or non-symmetric geometries, and for the cases where $q(vec{r})$ is non-negligible in a significant fraction of the total volume.
We present a comprehensive study about the relationship between the way Detailed Balance is broken in non-equilibrium systems and the resulting violations of the Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem. Starting from stochastic dynamics with both odd and even variables under Time-Reversal, we exploit the relation between entropy production and the breakdown of Detailed Balance to establish general constraints on the non-equilibrium steady-states (NESS), which relate the non-equilibrium character of the dynamics with symmetry properties of the NESS distribution. This provides a direct route to derive extended Fluctuation-Dissipation Relations, expressing the linear response function in terms of NESS correlations. Such framework provides a unified way to understand the departure from equilibrium of active systems and its linear response. We then consider two paradigmatic models of interacting self-propelled particles, namely Active Brownian Particles (ABP) and Active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Particles (AOUP). We analyze the non-equilibrium character of these systems (also within a Markov and a Chapman-Enskog approximation) and derive extended Fluctuation-Dissipation Relations for them, clarifying which features of these active model systems are genuinely non-equilibrium.
An equilibrium system which is perturbed by an external potential relaxes to a new equilibrium state, a process obeying the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. In contrast, perturbing by nonconservative forces yields a nonequilibrium steady state, and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem can in general not be applied. Here we exploit a freedom inherent to linear response theory: Force fields which perform work that does not couple statistically to the considered observable can be added without changing the response. Using this freedom, we demonstrate that the fluctuation-dissipation theorem can be applied for certain nonconservative forces. We discuss the case of a nonconservative force field linear in particle coordinates, where the mentioned freedom can be formulated in terms of symmetries. In particular, for the case of shear, this yields a response formula, which we find advantageous over the known Green-Kubo relation in terms of statistical accuracy.
