Abstract

The possibility of satisfying the fluctuation theorem (FT) under constant temperature and constant pressure conditions is shown. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the SHREP potential is a useful model potential for isobaric simulations when using a Gaussian barostat multiplier in the equations of motion. The isothermal-isobaric FT shows that as the size of the system and/or the averaging time increases, the possibility that the Second Law of Thermodynamics will be obeyed increases exponentially.
