We introduce a general framework for analyzing the thermodynamics of small systems that are driven by both a periodic temperature variation and some external parameter modulating their energy. This setup covers, in particular, periodic micro- and nan... Read More about Thermodynamics of micro- and nano-systems driven by periodic temperature variations.
