"Fluctuation Relations and Crystallization"

It will be discussed the compression of colloidal suspensions and the occurring
crystallization process in the framework of fluctuation theorems. In
particular properties of the work distributions are discussed and
correlations of the dissipated heat during the process to the detected
crystal structures and melt properties are investigated.

"Transport through model channel viewed as an activated process"

It will be presented Monte Carlo computer simulations of one-dimensional diffusion process of matter flow through a model channel. The simulations are based on a theoretical approach that provides a derivation of a Fick-Jacobs formula for the constrained dynamics of particles transported diffusively through a funnel-like channel. We try to answer the question how the activation (changing from open to close state) of the channel depends on channels' geometry and forces causing the matter transport.
