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 ...

A Statistical Thermodynamical Interpretation of Metabolism [PDF]
Entropy, 2010 The metabolic network of a cell can be decomposed into discrete elementary modes that contribute, each with a certain probability, to the overall flux through the metabolism. These modes are cell function supporting, fundamental pathways that represent permissible ‘quantum’ states of the metabolism.

Thermodynamics, Statistical Mechanics and Entropy
Entropy, 2017 The proper definition of thermodynamics and the thermodynamic entropy is discussed in the light of recent developments. The postulates for thermodynamics are examined critically, and some modifications are suggested to allow for the inclusion of long ...

Relativistic Statistical Mechanics vs. Relativistic Thermodynamics
Entropy, 2011 Based on a covariant theory of equilibrium Thermodynamics, a Statistical Relativistic Mechanics is developed for the non-interacting case. Relativistic Thermodynamics and Jüttner Relativistic Distribution Function in a moving frame are obtained by using ...

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.

Concepts, Challenges and Successes in Modeling Thermodynamics of Metabolism
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2014 The modeling of the chemical reactions involved in metabolism is a daunting task. Ideally, the modeling of metabolism would use kinetic simulations, but these simulations require knowledge of the thousands of rate constants involved in the reactions. The
