Entropy current and entropy production in relativistic spin hydrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2023
We use a first-principle quantum-statistical method to derive the expression of the entropy production rate in relativistic spin hydrodynamics. We show that the entropy current is not uniquely defined and can be changed by means of entropy-gauge ...

Deep learning probability flows and entropy production rates in active matter. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2023
Significance A long-standing challenge in statistical mechanics has been to quantify the nonequilibrium nature of active systems such as swarming bacteria, schooling fish, and flocking birds.

Analysis of flow loss characteristics of slanted axial-flow pump device based on entropy production theory

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
Slanted axial-flow pump devices are widely applied in urban water supply, irrigation and drainage engineering fields. The second law of thermodynamics is applied to investigate the flow loss characteristics of the 30° slanted axial-flow pump model ...

Relating a System's Hamiltonian to Its Entropy Production Using a Complex Time Approach. [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy (Basel), 2023
We exploit the properties of complex time to obtain an analytical relationship based on considerations of causality between the two Noether-conserved quantities of a system: its Hamiltonian and its entropy production. In natural units, when complexified,

Field theories of active particle systems and their entropy production [PDF]

open access: greenReports on progress in physics. Physical Society, 2022
Active particles that translate chemical energy into self-propulsion can maintain a far-from-equilibrium steady state and perform work. The entropy production measures how far from equilibrium such a particle system operates and serves as a proxy for the

Geometrical aspects of entropy production in stochastic thermodynamics based on Wasserstein distance [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2021
We study a relationship between optimal transport theory and stochastic thermodynamics for the Fokker-Planck equation. We show that the lower bound on the entropy production is the action measured by the path length of the L^{2}-Wasserstein distance ...

Continuous Monitoring of Entropy Production and Entropy Flow in Humans Exercising under Heat Stress [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Complex living systems, such as the human organism, are characterized by their self-organized and dissipative behaviors, where irreversible processes continuously produce entropy internally and export it to the environment; however, a means by which to ...

Foraging Dynamics and Entropy Production in a Simulated Proto-Cell [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
All organisms depend on a supply of energetic resources to power behavior and the irreversible entropy-producing processes that sustain them. Dissipative structure theory has often been a source of inspiration for better understanding the thermodynamics ...

Entropy production of resetting processes [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2023
Stochastic systems that undergo random restarts to their initial state have been widely investigated in recent years, both theoretically and in experiments.

Entropy Production in Exactly Solvable Systems [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
The rate of entropy production by a stochastic process quantifies how far it is from thermodynamic equilibrium. Equivalently, entropy production captures the degree to which global detailed balance and time-reversal symmetry are broken.
