The laws of thermodynamics don't accurately account for the complex processes in living cells – do we need a new one to ...
Thermodynamics was built to describe steam engines and stars, yet the same equations now sit at the heart of quantum ...
Researchers have devised a new way to define thermodynamic concepts in microscopic quantum systems, where conventional distinctions between heat and work begin to blur. Researchers at the University o ...
Stochastic thermodynamics and quantum systems constitute an emerging interdisciplinary field that extends classical thermodynamic concepts into realms where fluctuations and quantum effects play a ...
Recently, a team of researchers made headlines for a stunning announcement: a theoretical breakthrough that expanded our understanding of the first law of thermodynamics. But to understand that result ...
The Second law of Thermodynamics, which is accepted as one of the basic laws of physics, holds that under normal conditions all systems left on their own will tend to become disordered, dispersed and ...
The creationist campaigner Andy McIntosh spoke to me on today's Sunday Sequence, following Richard Dawkins's public challenge to his professional status as a scientist and professor at Leeds ...
