Entropy always increases, but in quantum systems, traditional entropy measures seem constant. TU Wien researchers resolved this paradox by considering Shannon entropy, which accounts for the ...

Researchers from Nagoya University in Japan and the Slovak Academy of Sciences have unveiled new insights into the interplay ...

For over a century, the Maxwell’s Demon paradox has haunted physics. This thought experiment suggests that a tiny, ...

The second law of thermodynamics, a cornerstone of modern physics, states that entropy—a measure of disorder—never spontaneously decreases. It governs everything from the efficiency of engines to the ...

The second law asserts that entropy—a measure of disorder ... The implications of this study extend beyond theoretical physics. Illuminating the thermodynamic limits of quantum systems provides ...

These findings provide further insights into the mysterious relationship between the quantum world and thermodynamics. While the role of entropy is evident in the classical world, ...

Mathematical equations have shaped our understanding of the universe, and these nine have played a key role in changing the world.

Researchers from the Nagoya University and Slovak Academy of Sciences have made a ground-breaking discovery that sheds new ...

THE application of the second law of thermodynamics to bodies interacting ... to consider it from the point of view of statistical physics.
