A New Entropy Function to Analyze Isentropic Processes of Ideal Gases with Variable Specific Heats

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
A new entropy function s+ is defined in terms of the existing entropy function s° and temperature as s+ = s° − R lnT to facilitate the analysis of isentropic processes of ideal gases with variable specific heats. The function s+ also makes it possible to

Defining the pressures of a fluid in a nanoporous, heterogeneous medium

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
We describe the thermodynamic state of a single-phase fluid confined to a porous medium with Hill’s thermodynamics of small systems, also known as nanothermodynamics.

The Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics and Volume-Preserving Conservative Dynamics with Equilibrium Stochastic Damping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We propose a mathematical formulation of the zeroth law of thermodynamics and develop a stochastic dynamical theory, with a consistent irreversible thermodynamics, for systems possessing sustained conservative stationary current in phase space while in ...

Improved thermodynamics of SU(2) gauge theory

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017
In this work we present the results of our investigation of the thermodynamics of SU(2) gauge theory. We employ a Symanzik improved action to reduce strongly the discretisations effects, and we use the scaling relations to take into account the finite ...

Macroscopic form of the first law of thermodynamics for an adiabatically evolving non-singular self-gravitating fluid

open access: yes, 2011
We emphasize that the pressure related work appearing in a general relativistic first law of thermodynamics should involve {\em proper volume element} rather than coordinate volume element.

Geometric Foundation of Thermo-Statistics, Phase Transitions, Second Law of Thermodynamics, but without Thermodynamic Limit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A geometric foundation thermo-statistics is presented with the only axiomatic assumption of Boltzmann's principle S(E,N,V)=k\ln W. This relates the entropy to the geometric area e^{S(E,N,V)/k} of the manifold of constant energy in the finite-N-body phase

Overcharging problem and thermodynamics in extended phase spaces

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2020
In this paper, the overcharging problem and thermodynamics in the extended phase spaces of the five-dimensional spherically symmetric topological black holes are investigated by absorptions of scalar particles and fermions.

Bimodalities : a survey of experimental data and models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Bimodal distributions of some chosen variables measured in nuclear collisions were recently proposed as a non ambiguous signature of a first order phase transition in nuclei.

Revisit on holographic complexity in two-dimensional gravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We revisit the late-time growth rate of various holographic complexity conjectures for neutral and charged AdS black holes with single or multiple horizons in two dimensional (2D) gravity like Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity and JT-like gravity.

Research Progress of Alloy Anodes for Lithium ion Batteries

open access: yesTaiyuan Ligong Daxue xuebao, 2021
Alloy anodes are potential anode materials for lithium ion batteries with high specific capacity and high safety. The different lithium (de)intercalation mechanisms of alloy anodes significantly affect the key issues such as dendrite growth, Li transport,
