  • A quasi-equilibrium state is approached if the rate of thermalizing collisions between particles within the fluid is faster than their decay rate.

    “as a general trend, a quasi-equilibrium state is approached if the rate of thermalizing collisions between particles within the fluid is faster than their decay rate [8].”

    From How to exploit driving and dissipation to stabilize and manipulate quantum many-body states (2025) · cites this paper as [8]

    In “A. Photon condensates” (p. 3), the paper says thermal equilibrium is maintained when dye absorption and emission are much faster than cavity losses, supporting the comparison between thermalization and decay rates. It explicitly says that, in these photon condensates, thermalization does not arise from collisions between photons within the gas; that mechanism is not supported. (LLM, conf=0.86)

  • Incoherent pumping overcomes losses and a coherent fluid of light is spontaneously generated in the cavity via a nonequilibrium condensation mechanism analogous to lasing.

    “a most interesting physics occurs when incoherent pumping overcomes losses and a coherent fluid of light is spontaneously generated in the cavity via a nonequilibrium condensation mechanism analogous to lasing [8]”
  • Fluids of light in cavity configurations are typically driven-dissipative, with the state determined by a dynamical balance of pumping and losses rather than thermal equilibrium.

    “fluids of light in cavity configurations are typically characterized by a driven-dissipative nature, where the state of the fluid is not determined by a thermal equilibrium condition, but rather by a dynamical balance of pumping and losses [8,9].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
