The emphasis is on fluctuations, which can be large in granular fluids due to the small system size (the number of grains is many orders of magnitude smaller than in molecular fluids). Firstly, readers will be introduced to the most intriguing experiments on fluidized granular fluids. Then granular fluid theory, which goes through increasing levels of coarse-graining and emerging collective phenomena, is described. Problems and questions are initially posed at the level of kinetic theory, which describes particle densities in full or reduced phase-space. Some answers become clear through hydrodynamics, which describes the evolution of slowly evolving fields. Granular fluctuating hydrodynamics, which builds a bridge to the most recent results in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, is also introduced. Further and more interesting answers come when the dynamics of a massive intruder are discussed. Such non-equilibrium stochastic process offers a more precise and compact picture of the features foreseen at the more detailed levels of description. The dynamics of an intruder diffusing in a granular fluid reveal the clearest connection with recent theories on stochastic energetics and stochastic thermodynamics. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Physics,$x2191-5423 606 $aAmorphous substances 606 $aComplex fluids 606 $aStatistical physics 606 $aDynamical systems 606 $aPhysics 606 $aSoft and Granular Matter, Complex Fluids and Microfluidics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25021 606 $aComplex Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000 606 $aMathematical Methods in Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013 606 $aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090 615 0$aAmorphous substances. 615 0$aComplex fluids. 615 0$aStatistical physics. 615 0$aDynamical systems. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 14$aSoft and Granular Matter, Complex Fluids and Microfluidics. 615 24$aComplex Systems. 615 24$aMathematical Methods in Physics. 615 24$aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems. 676 $a530 676 $a530.15 676 $a530.41 676 $a621 700 $aPuglisi$b Andrea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0792800 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910741156403321 996 $aTransport and Fluctuations in Granular Fluids$91773030 997 $aUNINA
