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

The laws of physics that concern heat and work could gain a firmer mathematical footing thanks to “gauge theory”, which ...

A new theoretical study offers a possible explanation for how the Universe can grow more complex without violating the second ...

What do we do now?

Scientists have developed a new framework that could finally apply the laws of thermodynamics to real, ever-changing black ...

Gravity from Entropy theory offers a new resolution to one of physics' oldest paradoxes: how the universe builds galaxies and ...

A new study by Queen Mary University of London mathematician Professor Ginestra Bianconi proposes a new perspective on one of the deepest questions in modern physics: how can the Universe become ...

Chemical thermodynamics describes how heat and work interconvert within chemical systems and governs reaction spontaneity, equilibria and phase behaviour. Central to this discipline are state ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Researchers have made a breakthrough in applying the first law of thermodynamics to complex systems. The law is a bedrock of physics, but has long ...

Thermodynamics is the science of energy transfer and its effects on the properties of matter. It primarily deals with concepts such as temperature, heat, work, internal energy, and the laws governing ...
