Superstatistical Brownian motion
Abstract
As a main example for the superstatistics approach, we study a Brownian particle moving in a d-dimensional inhomogeneous environment with macroscopic temperature fluctuations. We discuss the average occupation time of the particle in spatial cells with a given temperature. The Fokker-Planck equation for this problem becomes a stochastic partial differential equation. We illustrate our results using experimentally measured time series from hydrodynamic turbulence.
