  • A binary fluid mixture in contact with lateral particle reservoirs is considered. By imposing different particle concentrations in these reservoirs, the system can be maintained under controlled non-equilibrium conditions. Previous stochastic approaches have revealed an unexpected property of the system's state trajectory, namely that it remains time-reversible even when the system is driven out of equilibrium. In the absence of relevant experimental evidence, we employ microscopic molecular dynamics simulations to assess the validity of this surprising result. Remarkably, the simulation results unambiguously confirm the prediction of the stochastic analysis.
