We apply it to the case of a damped harmonic oscillator in contact with a thermal bath. The present method allows us to treat, among other cases, a Gaussian noise function exponentially correlated in time, e.g., Gaussian colored noise. We obtain the exact equilibrium solution and study some of its properties.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-05-15T18:28:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "colored noise", "brownian dynamics", "time-averaging", "exact equilibrium solution", "harmonic oscillator" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
