Quantum thermodynamics has emerged as an innovative field that integrates the principles of quantum mechanics with classical thermodynamic concepts to describe systems beyond equilibrium. Central to ...

We study the convergence to equilibrium of a class of nonlinear recombination models. In analogy with Boltzmann's H-theorem from kinetic theory, and in contrast with previous analysis of these models, ...

In a study published in Nature, researchers have used ultrafast laser heating and high-resolution inelastic X-ray scattering to explore the extreme limits of gold's structural stability. The 'entropy ...
