Abstract
The convergence of the steady-state fluctuation theorem (SSFT) is investigated in a shear-flow experiment performed in a dusty plasma. This medium has a viscoelastic property characterized by the Maxwell relaxation time Tau M. Using measurements of the time series of the entropy production rate, for subsystems of various sizes, it is discovered that the SSFT convergence time decreases with the increasing system size until it eventually reaches a minimum value of Tau M, no matter the size of the subsystem. This result indicates that the convergence of the SSFT is limited by the energy-storage property of the viscoelastic medium.
