Field induced magnetic transition and metastability in Co substituted $Mn_{2}Sb$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A detailed investigation of first order ferrimagnetic (FRI) to antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition in Co (15%) doped $Mn_2Sb$ is carried out. These measurements demonstrate anomalous thermomagnetic irreversibility and glass-like frozen FRI phase at low ...

Geometrical Bounds of the Irreversibility in Markovian Systems.

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2020
We derive geometrical bounds on the irreversibility in both quantum and classical Markovian open systems that satisfy the detailed balance condition. Using information geometry, we prove that irreversible entropy production is bounded from below by a ...

Irreversibility in Active Matter Systems: Fluctuation Theorem and Mutual Information [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2018
We consider a Brownian particle which, in addition to being in contact with a thermal bath, is driven by fluctuating forces which stem from active processes in the system, such as self-propulsion o ...

Distillation of a Complex Mixture. Part II: Performance Analysis of a Distillation Column Using Exergy

open access: yesEntropy, 2007
To analyze the performance of the separation process, we have introduced thethermodynamic concept of exergy through the exergetic efficiency of the column.

Irreversible Electroporation [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Interventional Radiology, 2015
Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a predominantly nonthermal ablative technology that uses high-voltage, low-energy DC current pulses to induce cell death. Thermal ablative technologies such as radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryoablation have several applications in oncology but have limitations that have been established. IRE has

Incentivizing Irreversible Investment [PDF]

open access: yesThe Accounting Review, 2021
ABSTRACT Existing dynamic investment models that show that a manager can be incentivized to implement the optimal investment policy rely on the assumption that the firm is operating in an ever-expanding product market. This paper presents an analytically tractable, discrete-time, neoclassical model with irreversible investment and the ...

Microscopic irreversibility

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2004
First, I will recount the substance of several important conversations I had with Ilya Prigogine over the years. There is no doubt in my mind that Professor Prigogine firmly believed in the underlying stochasticity of the universe.

Dissipation and irreversibility in computing

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2023
There has been much discussion for decades over the proper concepts of minimum dissipation per logic gate and what is required for computation, as well as early arguments over logically reversible machines.

Practical Aspects of Cyclic Voltammetry: How to Estimate Reduction Potentials When Irreversibility Prevails

open access: yesJournal of the Electrochemical Society, 2019
What is the best approach for estimating standard electrochemical potentials, E (0) , from voltammograms that exhibit chemical irreversibility? The lifetimes of the oxidized or reduced forms of the majority of known redox species are considerably shorter

Information-Theoretical Bound of the Irreversibility in Thermal Relaxation Processes. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2019
We establish that entropy production, which is crucial to the characterization of thermodynamic irreversibility, is obtained through a variational principle involving the Kulback-Leibler divergence. A simple application of this representation leads to an
