Does Temperature have a Metric Structure? [PDF]
, 2011 Is there anything more to temperature than the ordering of things from colder to hotter? Are there also facts, for example, about how much hotter (twice as hot, three times as hot...) one thing is than another?

Second law of thermodynamics is ingrained within quantum mechanics
Results in Physics, 2018 We show that the second law of thermodynamics is rooted in quantum mechanics, inasmuch as allowing the substitution of the Boltzmann constant k and temperature with respectively the Planck constant and quantum numbers. In particular, we will see that the

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020 We adopt the energy momentum relation of charged particles to study the thermodynamics laws and weak cosmic censorship conjecture of D-dimensional f(R) AdS black holes in different phase spaces by considering charged particle absorption.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Silicone breast implants are presented as a model system for understanding polymer permeation in vivo. Rather than representing material failure, “gel bleed” emerges from solution–diffusion transport‐mediated. By integrating polymer architecture, physicochemical transport, and biointerfacial processes, this review provides a unified framework that ...

Energetic Offset in Organic Solar Cells‐ Importance, Confusion and Outlook
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Energetic offsets in organic solar cells (OSCs) remain a subject of debate due to measurement‐ and lab‐dependent discrepancies. This Perspective clarifies the physical origins of these variations and identifies temperature‐dependent electro‐optical methods as a reliable approach to obtain consistent offset values.

Sociological and Economic Inequality and the Second Law [PDF]
There are two fair ways to distribute particles in boxes. The first one is the Casino’s way, namely an equal chance to any box. The second one is the thermodynamic way, namely an equal chance to any different configuration of particles and boxes.

Logic and the Second Law of Thermodynamics [PDF]
, 1996 This paper presents a 2T thermodynamic cycle operating around the critical locus of ethylene. The cycle converts heat energy to work at a rate greater than the Carnot cycle.

Thermodynamics in Rastall gravity with entropy corrections
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2018 We explore the thermodynamic analysis at the apparent horizon in the framework of Rastall theory of gravity. We take different entropies such as the Bakenstein, logarithmic corrected, power law corrected, and the Renyi entropies. We investigate the first

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A Nb‐proximitized Josephson junction based on a WTe2/α‐Fe2O3 heterostructure exhibits a robust superconducting diode effect with programmable polarity. The diode direction can be trained by magnetic fields and switched by temperature cycling, revealing tunable finite‐momentum pairing states and competing superconducting states in symmetry‐broken ...

Practical Application of Second Law Efficiency Analysis
, 1983 Slowly but surely the direct application of the Second Law of Thermodynamics is being recognized, for its practical usefulness in engineering. This paper will describe the methods, and show the results of applications to whole economic sectors (industry,
