Abstract

We study the fluctuation theorem formulated in terms of the currents present in a Hamiltonian system with coupled mass and energy transport. To drive the system out of equilibrium, we assume it to be connected to two ideal thermodynamical baths. The fluctuation symmetry is, thus, expressed in terms of the joint probability distribution of energy and particle currents in the system. This relation is verified numerically for the stationary state in the Spinning Lorentz Gas (SLG), driven out of equilibrium by temperature and/or chemical potential differences between the baths, as well as in the presence of an applied field.
