Phenomenological approach to the caloric theory of heat

Thermochimica Acta, 2008
Abstract This contribution presents an alternative approach to thermal physics and to its affiliated thermodynamics aiming to initiate a discussion concerning the related problems of its fundamental nature. We reason that the classical thermodynamics suffers considerably from a misinterpretation of experimental facts known as the Principle of ...

Toward a unified theory of caloric restriction and longevity regulation

Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, 2005
The diet known as calorie restriction (CR) is the most reproducible way to extend the lifespan of mammals. Many of the early hypotheses to explain this effect were based on it being a passive alteration in metabolism. Yet, recent data from yeast, worms, flies, and mammals support the idea that CR is not simply a passive effect but an active, highly ...

CAN EXPERIMENTS ON CALORIC RESTRICTION BE RECONCILED WITH THE DISPOSABLE SOMA THEORY FOR THE EVOLUTION OF SENESCENCE?

Evolution, 2001
A publication by Shanley and Kirkwood (2000) attempts to explain data on caloric restriction (CR) and life extension in the context of the Disposable Soma (DS) theory for the evolution of senescence. As the authors concede, this juxtaposition appears at first to offend intuition: According to the DS theory, senescence is the result of a tight budget ...

Rumford’s Experimental Challenge to Caloric Theory: “Big Science” 18th-Century Style with Important Results for Chemistry and Physics

Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
The cannon boring experiment of Count Rumford, where eight kilograms of water were boiled by metal on metal friction, is investigated. Consideration of this dramatic demonstration can enrich classroom discussions of calorimetry, units of measure ...
