The fluctuation-dissipation theorem is a principle in statistical mechanics that relates the fluctuations in a system at thermal equilibrium to its response to external perturbations. This theorem essentially states that the way a system responds to small perturbations is directly linked to the spontaneous fluctuations occurring in the system itself, bridging the behavior of equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems.
congrats on reading the definition of Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem. now let's actually learn it.
