Thermodynamics in Modified Gravity with Curvature Matter Coupling

Advances in High Energy Physics, 2013
The first and generalized second laws of thermodynamics are studied in f(R,Lm) gravity, a more general modified theory with curvature matter coupling. It is found that one can translate the Friedmann equations to the form of first law accompanied with ...

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

Nonequilibrium Laser Regulation of the Electronic Structure of the Ni‐Based Electrode for Boosting Nucleophilic Electrooxidation of Alcohols

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work reports an efficient, simple, low‐cost, and scalable method for overall electrode preparation. Nonequilibrium laser synthesis rapidly yields NiO nanocrystals on which a nickel oxyhydroxide (NiOOH) overlayer is grown in situ. By varying the number of laser pulses, the Ni3+/Ni2+ ratio is precisely tuned, thereby modulating the electronic ...

Fluctuating hydrodynamics and irreversible thermodynamics [PDF]

, 2001
The equilibrium Rayleigh-Brillouin spectrum for a Maxwell fluid in which heat conduction is governed by the classical Fourier law is computed. This is done by using fluctuating hydrodynamics and by the alternative procedure used by Mountain.
