We investigate various possible definitions of an effective temperature for a particularly simple nonequilibrium stationary system, namely a heated Brownian particle suspended in a fluid. The effective temperature based on the fluctuation dissipation ratio depends on the time scale under consideration, so that a simple Langevin description of the heated particle is impossible. The short and long time limits of this effective temperature are shown to be consistent with the temperatures estimated from the kinetic energy and Einstein relation, respectively. The fluctuation theorem provides still another definition of the temperature, which is shown to coincide with the short time value of the fluctuation dissipation ratio.

We study the stationary dynamics of an active interacting Brownian particle system. We measure the violations of the fluctuation dissipation theorem, and the corresponding effective temperature, in a locally resolved way. Quite naturally, in the homo
geneous phases the diffusive properties and effective temperature are also homogeneous. Instead, in the inhomogeneous phases (close to equilibrium and within the MIPS sector) the particles can be separated in two groups with different diffusion properties and effective temperatures. Notably, at fixed activity strength the effective temperatures in the two phases remain distinct and approximately constant within the MIPS region, with values corresponding to the ones of the whole system at the boundaries of this sector of the phase diagram. We complement the study of the globally averaged properties with the theoretical and numerical characterization of the fluctuation distributions of the single particle diffusion, linear response, and effective temperature in the homogeneous and inhomogeneous phases. We also distinguish the behavior of the (time-delayed) effective temperature from the (instantaneous) kinetic temperature, showing that the former is independent on the friction coefficient.
We focus on a paradigmatic two-dimensional model of a nanoscale heat engine, - the so-called Brownian gyrator - whose stochastic dynamics is described by a pair of coupled Langevin equations with different temperature noise terms. This model is known
to produce a curl-carrying non-equilibrium steady-state with persistent angular rotations. We generalize the original model introducing constant forces doing work on the gyrator, for which we derive exact asymmetry relations, that are reminiscent of the standard fluctuation relations. Unlike the latter, our relations concern instantaneous and not time averaged values of the observables of interest. We investigate the full two-dimensional dynamics as well as the dynamics projected on the $x$- and $y$-axes, so that information about the state of the system can be obtained from just a part of its degrees of freedom. Such a state is characterized by effective temperatures that can be measured in nanoscale devices, but do not have a thermodynamic nature. Remarkably, the effective temperatures appearing in full dynamics are distinctly different from the ones emerging in its projections, confirming that they are not thermodynamic quantities, although they precisely characterize the state of the system.
We consider a model of a two-dimensional molecular machine - called Brownian gyrator - that consists of two coordinates coupled to each other and to separate heat baths at temperatures respectively $T_x$ and $T_y$. We consider the limit in which one
component is passive, because its bath is cold, $T_x to 0$, while the second is in contact with a hot bath, $T_y > 0$, hence it entrains the passive component in a stochastic motion. We derive an asymmetry relation as a function of time, from which time dependent effective temperatures can be obtained for both components. We find that the effective temperature of the passive element tends to a constant value, which is a fraction of $T_y$, while the effective temperature of the driving component grows without bounds, in fact exponentially in time, as the steady-state is approached.
We investigate the persistence probability of a Brownian particle in a harmonic potential, which decays to zero at long times -- leading to an unbounded motion of the Brownian particle. We consider two functional forms for the decay of the confinemen
t, an exponential and an algebraic decay. Analytical calculations and numerical simulations show, that for the case of the exponential relaxation, the dynamics of Brownian particle at short and long times are independent of the parameters of the relaxation. On the contrary, for the algebraic decay of the confinement, the dynamics at long times is determined by the exponent of the decay. Finally, using the two-time correlation function for the position of the Brownian particle, we construct the persistence probability for the Brownian walker in such a scenario.
At fast timescales, the self-similarity of random Brownian motion is expected to break down and be replaced by ballistic motion. So far, an experimental verification of this prediction has been out of reach due to a lack of instrumentation fast and p
recise enough to capture this motion. With a newly developed detector, we have been able to observe the Brownian motion of a single particle in an optical trap with 75 MHz bandwidth and sub-{AA}ngstrom spatial precision. We report the first measurements of ballistic Brownian motion as well as the first determination of the velocity autocorrelation function of a Brownian particle. The data are in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions taking into account the inertia of the particle and the surrounding fluid as well as hydrodynamic memory effects.
