Tuning the performance of a micrometer-sized Stirling engine through reservoir engineering

Micro scale heat engines may be subjected to quite intriguing scenarios. Roy et al superimpose artificial random kicks on an optically trapped colloid, emulating a memoryless non-gaussian reservoir that markedly alters the conditions under which the engine performs at optimum efficiency.
