At the macroscale, transport processes such as diffusion, viscosity, or heat conduction are described in terms of macroscopic equations involving phenomenological coefficients as it is the case. These nonequilibrium macroscopic properties emerge from the microscopic motion of the atoms and molecules composing matter. A huge gap separates the micro- from the macroscale, which can be bridged thanks to appropriate stochastic descriptions holding at mesocopic scales and allowing us to derive exact expressions for the transport coefficients.
