How Gravity from Entropy theory connects the second law of thermodynamics with the emergence of cosmic structure

A new study by Queen Mary University of London mathematician Professor Ginestra Bianconi proposes a new perspective on one of ...

Black hole collisions may follow entropy law, offering simpler remnant predictions

When two black holes orbit each other, they eventually spiral inward and collide in one of the most violent phenomena in the ...

Dynamic black holes may obey Hawking-style thermodynamics with an alternative entropy measure

Of the known things in the universe, black holes are among the most extreme. They pack huge amounts of mass densely into a ...

Stephen Hawking's famous 'leaky' black hole theory gets much-needed update

"Hawking's laws of black hole mechanics provided a satisfying connection between extreme and ordinary physics and have been the paradigm for 50 years, but they have a serious limitation." ...

New method to measure entropy production on the nanoscale

Entropy, the amount of molecular disorder, is produced in several systems but cannot be measured directly. A new equation sheds new light on how entropy is produced on a very short time scale in laser ...

Ask Ethan: What Was The Entropy Of The Universe At The Big Bang?

The second law of thermodynamics is one of those puzzling laws of nature that simply emerges from the fundamental rules. It says that entropy, a measure of disorder in the Universe, must always ...
