Anthony Reich, a graduate student at the University of Massachusetts, accidentally obtained a liquid of oil, water, and ...

Is this true? Perhaps. But it also seems that the applicability of notions such as entropy, thermodynamics and equilibrium becomes anything but clear when gravity enters the picture; consequently ...

A graduate student accidentally created a blend of oil, water and nickel particles that formed an unexpected shape.

Many philosophers and scientists have pondered if we live in a simulated universe, and University of Portsmouth scientist ...

The first and second laws of thermodynamics. Entropy and equilibrium. Material and energy balances. Equations of state and properties of fluids. Solutions, phase equilibria, and chemical reaction.

In a surprising twist, a graduate student at UMass Amherst discovered a strange new fluid behavior that seems to defy ...

A curious liquid refused to remain chaotic after being shaken and settled into a smooth, outlined shape like a piece of ...

For centuries, humans have made use of glass in their art, tools, and technology. Despite the ubiquity of this material, ...

thermodynamic relations, chemical reactions, and phase and chemical equilibrium. Thermodynamics concerns the foundation of all branches of physical sciences. Therefore, this course is highly ...

thermodynamic integration methods and their applications to equilibrium solids and grain boundary kinetics, phase transitions in systems of particles with soft repulsive interactions, mean-field ...

By completing this specialization, you will be able to: Understand how the microscopic properties of atoms and molecules relate to classical thermodynamic properties and to some non-equilibrium ...

The review bridges physics and biology by analyzing how stochastic thermodynamics—a framework describing energy exchanges in microscopic systems—helps explain limitations across diverse biological ...
