Thermodynamics Beyond Molecules: Statistical Thermodynamics of Probability Distributions [PDF]
Entropy, 2019 Statistical thermodynamics has a universal appeal that extends beyond molecular systems, and yet, as its tools are being transplanted to fields outside physics, the fundamental question, what is thermodynamics, has remained unanswered.

Statistical Thermodynamics of Polymer Quantum Systems [PDF]
Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2011 Polymer quantum systems are mechanical models quantized similarly as loop quantum gravity. It is actually in quantizing gravity that the polymer term holds proper as the quantum geometry excitations yield a reminiscent of a polymer material.

Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Viral Evolution. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 This paper uses methods drawn from physics to study the life cycle of viruses. The paper analyzes a model of viral infection and evolution using the "grand canonical ensemble" and formalisms from statistical mechanics and thermodynamics.

Contemporary Physics, 2016 Quantum thermodynamics is an emerging research field aiming to extend standard thermodynamics and non-equilibrium statistical physics to ensembles of sizes well below the thermodynamic limit, in non-equilibrium situations, and with the full inclusion of ...

Thermodynamics of Statistical Anyons
PRX Quantum, 2021 In low-dimensional systems, indistinguishable particles can display statistics that interpolate between bosons and fermions. Signatures of these “anyons” have been detected in two-dimensional quasiparticle excitations of the fractional quantum Hall ...

St. Petersburg Polytechnical University Journal: Physics and Mathematics, 2022 We apply the hybrid multispin Monte Carlo method to calculate the properties for artificial dipole ice on hexagonal and Cairo lattices. The method is based on combining a random selection of a set of spins (cluster) using the Monte Carlo with complete ...

The Ionic Product of Water in the Eye of the Quantum Cluster Equilibrium
Molecules, 2022 The theoretical description of water properties continues to be a challenge. Using quantum cluster equilibrium (QCE) theory, we combine state-of-the-art quantum chemistry and statistical thermodynamic methods with the almost historical Clausius–Clapeyron

Classical Thermodynamic Analysis of Deuterium-Based Fusion Reactions
Hydrogen, 2022 The fusion reactions involving deuterium are of great interest for the exploitation of the fusion energy via magnetic-confinement devices. In classical thermodynamics, the spontaneity of a process is established through the assessment of the change in ...

Stochastic Theory of Discrete Binary Fragmentation—Kinetics and Thermodynamics
Entropy, 2022 We formulate binary fragmentation as a discrete stochastic process in which an integer mass k splits into two integer fragments j, k−j, with rate proportional to the fragmentation kernel Fj,k−j.
