A Photon Force and Flow for Dissipative Structuring: Application to Pigments, Plants and Ecosystems
Entropy, 2022 Through a modern derivation of Planck’s formula for the entropy of an arbitrary beam of photons, we derive a general expression for entropy production due to the irreversible process of the absorption of an arbitrary incident photon spectrum in material ...

Entropy, 2020 Amidst certainty, efficiency can improve sustainability by reducing resource consumption. However, flexibility is needed to be able to survive when uncertainty increases. Apropos, sustainable production cannot persist in the long-term without having both

On Entropy Production of Repeated Quantum Measurements I. General Theory [PDF]
Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2017 We study entropy production (EP) in processes involving repeated quantum measurements of finite quantum systems. Adopting a dynamical system approach, we develop a thermodynamic formalism for the EP and study fine aspects of irreversibility related to the hypothesis testing of the arrow of time.

Entanglement entropy of N=2⁎ de Sitter vacuum
Nuclear Physics B, 2019 de Sitter vacuum of nonconformal gauge theories is non-equilibrium, manifested by a nonvanishing rate of the comoving entropy production at asymptotically late times.

Microscopic theory for the time irreversibility and the entropy production [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2018 Abstract In stochastic thermodynamics, the entropy production of a thermodynamic system is defined by the irreversibility measured by the logarithm of the ratio of the path probabilities in the forward and reverse processes. We derive the relation between the irreversibility and the entropy production starting from the deterministic ...

Theory and simulation of shock waves: Entropy production and energy conversion [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2021 We have considered a shock wave as a surface of discontinuity and computed the entropy production using non-equilibrium thermodynamics for surfaces. The results from this method, which we call the "Gibbs excess method" (GEM), were compared with results from three alternative methods, all based on the entropy balance in the shock front region, but with ...
