Experimental Measurement of Relative Path Probabilities and Stochastic Actions

For diffusive stochastic dynamics, the probability to observe any individual trajectory is vanishingly small, making it unclear how to experimentally validate theoretical results for ratios of path probabilities. We provide the missing link between theory and experiment by establishing a protocol to...
