The light interacts with the cavity and makes an arbitrary number of bounces before leaking out. This emergent light is traditionally treated as heat in quantum simulations. However, it can still be ...

When I began my power industry career years ago (initially in the chemistry lab of a coal-fired power plant), the criticality of proper chemistry control of steam boilers, cooling water systems, and ...

Explore the intriguing solution to Maxwell's demon paradox as Rolf Landauer reveals how erasing information generates heat and increases the entropy of a system. #MaxwellsDemon #InformationTheory #Ent ...

Thermodynamic spontaneity—whether a reaction can go—can be measured by changes in either of two parameters: entropy or free energy.
