Entropy and Area in Loop Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Black hole thermodynamics suggests that the maximum entropy that can be contained in a region of space is proportional to the area enclosing it rather than its volume.

Prediction of gas hydrate formation region in the wellbore of deepwater drilling

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2008
It is essential to consider the thermodynamics, temperature, and pressure conditions of gas hydrate formation in order to predict the gas hydrate formation region in the wellbore of deepwater drilling.

Three Views of a Secret in Relativistic Thermodynamics

open access: yes, 2008
It has been shown three different views in relativistic thermodynamics can be derived from the basic formulation proposed by van Kampen and Israel. The way to decompose energy-momentum into the reversible and irreversible parts is not uniquely determined,

Entropy bounds for uncollapsed matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In any static spacetime the quasilocal Tolman mass contained within a volume can be reduced to a Gauss-like surface integral involving the flux of a suitably defined generalized surface gravity.

Gravitational thermodynamics of causal diamonds in (A)dS [PDF]

open access: yesSciPost Physics, 2018
The static patch of de Sitter spacetime and the Rindler wedge of Minkowski spacetime are causal diamonds admitting a true Killing field, and they behave as thermodynamic equilibrium states under gravitational perturbations.

Stochastic and Macroscopic Thermodynamics of Strongly Coupled Systems

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2017
We develop a thermodynamic framework that describes a classical system of interest S that is strongly coupled to its thermal environment E. Within this framework, seven key thermodynamic quantities—internal energy, entropy, volume, enthalpy, Gibbs free ...

Incremental least action principle in the framework of thermodynamics of irreversible processes

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
In this paper, an incremental least action principle is proposed using the framework of the thermodynamics of irreversible processes. First, we establish that an extensive thermodynamic potential defined over an infinitesimal volume satisfies a ...

Structure and thermodynamics of a mixture of patchy and spherical colloids: a multi-body association theory with complete reference fluid information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A mixture of solvent particles with short-range, directional interactions and solute particles with short-range, isotropic interactions that can bond multiple times is of fundamental interest in understanding liquids and colloidal mixtures.

Instability of super-entropic black holes in extended thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 2019
The charged black hole of Bañados, Teitelbiom and Zanelli is studied in extended gravitational thermodynamics where there is a dynamical pressure and volume.

Quantization of Contact Manifolds and Thermodynamics

open access: yes, 2007
The physical variables of classical thermodynamics occur in conjugate pairs such as pressure/volume, entropy/temperature, chemical potential/particle number.
