Here it is assumed that this dynamics results from the thermally activated jumping through a rough energy landscape. A hierarchy of relaxation times plays the key role in the description of this complex phase space behaviour. Our theory enables us to analyze the heat transfer just before and at the moment of contact.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-06-25T15:00:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fluctuation-dissipation regime", "heat exchange", "interacting nanoparticles", "complex phase space behaviour", "intricate phase space dynamics" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
