Non-equilibrium thermodynamics of a particle driven by time-delayed feedback — •Robin A. Kopp and Sabine H. L. Klapp — Institut für Theoretische Physik, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany

Time-delayed feedback can act as a propulsion mechanism, which has recently been demonstrated and studied both theoretically [1] and experimentally [2]. In two-dimensional systems and for suitable feedback parameters, persistent motion occurs despite fluctuations, resembling the behavior of self-propelled particles [3]. Using the framework of stochastic energetics [4] we here study the thermodynamic properties of a colloidal particle in two dimensions driven by time-delayed feedback. Focusing on the dissipated heat, we combine analytical and numerical methods to gain insights into the onset of persistent motion, which occurs above a threshold value in parameter space. Above the threshold of persistent motion we furthermore compare to the well-established active Brownian particle model for self-propulsion with corresponding parameters. Finally we show that even below the threshold a non-zero heat dissipation is to be expected and can indeed be found in numerical simulations.
