Brownian motor ramifications of the Fluctuation Theorems, Pumping Quantization Theorems, and Pumping-Restriction Theorems. Brownian motor Brownian motors are nano-scale or molecular devices by which thermally activated processes (chemical reactions) are controlled and used to generate directed motion in space and to do mechanical or electrical work. These tiny engines operate in an environment where viscosity dominates inertia, and where thermal noise makes moving in a specific direction as difficult as walking in a hurricane: the forces impelling these motors in the desired direction are minuscule in comparison with the random forces exerted by the environment. Because this type of motor is so
Brownian Motion Ultimate squared off against defending champions Colorado. Colorado, led by 2004 Callahan Award winner Josh "Richter" Ackley and sophomore Beau Kittredge, had had a more successful spring season than Brown, but the two teams had not yet faced each other. The night before the game, Brown's Josh Ziperstein was announced the 2005 Callahan Award winner, leading to a rare occurrence of two Callahan Award winners playing against each other in the finals. Brown defeated Colorado 15-14 in a game that featured incredible plays by both Brown and Colorado. 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1996 Brownian Motion Ultimate Brownian
