DOI: 10.1016/j.rinp.2018.06.058
Abstract: Abstract We show that the second law of thermodynamics is rooted in quantum mechanics, inasmuch as allowing the substitution of the Boltzmann constant k and temperature with respectively the Planck constant and quantum numbers. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1089/rej.2017.2037
Abstract: The hypothesis regarding the role of increased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels with reference to the fundamental concepts of aging and entropy is presented. Considering the second law of thermodynamics, NAD+ seems the appropriate candidate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreva.96.042304
Abstract: We design a heat engine with multi-heat-reservoir, ancillary system and quantum memory. We then derive an inequality related with the second law of thermodynamics, and give a new limitation about the work gain from the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreva.99.022304
Abstract: One out of many emerging implications from solutions of Einstein's general relativity equations are closed timelike curves (CTCs), which are trajectories through spacetime that loop back on themselves in the form of wormholes. Two main… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.129.150602
Abstract: The third law of thermodynamics, also known as the Nernst unattainability principle, puts a fundamental bound on how close a system, whether classical or quantum, can be cooled to a temperature near to absolute zero.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1122/8.0000363
Abstract: Many thixo-viscoelastic materials have been reported to undergo enhancement in elastic modulus with time and decrease in the same under application of deformation field. Incorporation of this feature in a viscoelastic structural kinetic model has… read more here.

DOI: 10.3103/s1068798x20070114
Abstract: As is established here, the classical interpretation of the first law of thermodynamics is inconsistent with the processes actually occurring in piston-based internal combustion engines. A new interpretation is proposed. read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/e24030392
Abstract: The II law of thermodynamics is most often given in three supposedly equivalent formulations: two Clausius (I and II) and one Kelvin. The most general and indisputable entropy formulation belongs to Clausius (II). The earlier… read more here.
