About some Entropy Aspects of Dissipative Systems [PDF]
This paper is aspiring to get a logical explanation on the entropy velocity (i.e. on the entropy acceleration) in a Universe “endowed” with a dissipative system.

Does a computer have an arrow of time? [PDF]
In [Sch05a], it is argued that Boltzmann's intuition, that the psychological arrow of time is necessarily aligned with the thermodynamic arrow, is correct.

Episensitization: Defying Time’s Arrow [PDF]
The development of cancer is driven by complex genetic and epigenetic changes that result in aberrant and uncontrolled cellular growth. Epigenetic changes, in particular, are implicated in the silencing or activation of key genes that control cellular growth and apoptosis and contribute to transformative potential.

Solid-Phase Microextraction Arrow for the Sampling of Volatile Organic Compounds in Milk Samples
A novel sample preparation method based on the use of the Arrow solid-phase microextraction device was used to extract and preconcentrate volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from milk samples prior to their determination by gas chromatography–mass ...

The Cosmological Arrow of Time and the Retarded Potentials
We demonstrate that the cosmological arrow of time is the cause for the arrow of time associated with the retarded radiation. This implies that the proposed mathematical model serves to confirm the hypothesis of Gold and Wheeler that the stars radiate ...

A note on singularities and the arrow of time [PDF]
An interesting thought experiment claiming to highlight the connection between singularities and the global arrow of time is re-analyzed, and a further specification suggested.

Arrow(s) of Time without a Past Hypothesis [PDF]
The paper discusses recent proposals by Carroll and Chen, as well as Barbour, Koslowski, and Mercati to explain the (thermodynamic) arrow of time without a Past Hypothesis, i.e., the assumption of a special (low-entropy) initial state of the universe ...

Quantum computer inverting time arrow for macroscopic systems [PDF]
A legend tells that once Loschmidt asked Boltzmann on what happens to his statistical theory if one inverts the velocities of all particles, so that, due to the reversibility of Newton's equations, they return from the equilibrium to a nonequilibrium ...

Quantum Computation and Arrows of Time
Quantum physics is surprising in many ways. One surprise is the threat to locality implied by Bell’s Theorem. Another surprise is the capacity of quantum computation, which poses a threat to the complexity-theoretic Church-Turing thesis.

Pre-bangian origin of our entropy and time arrow [PDF]
I argue that, in the chaotic version of string cosmology proposed recently, classical and quantum effects generate, at the time of exit to radiation, the correct amount of entropy to saturate a Hubble (or holography) entropy bound (HEB) and to identify ...
