A NEW edition of Prof. Partington's “Text-book of Thermodynamics with special reference to Chemistry” (1913) has been desired for some time, and those who are familiar with that work will welcome it ...

The Earth system is remarkably different from its planetary neighbours in that it shows pronounced, strong global cycling of matter. These global cycles result in the maintenance of a unique ...

TEACHERS and students alike should' be grateful to Prof. Washburn for supporting the use in physical chemistry of the differential and integral calculus, which he introduces freely in the work now ...

Nernst's theorem—a general experimental observation presented in 1905 that entropy exchanges tend to zero when the temperature tends to zero—has been directly linked to the second principle of ...

The second law of thermodynamics says, in simple terms, entropy always increases. This principle explains, for example, why you can't unscramble an egg. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

The Thermodynamics series of conferences have run biannually since the 1960s and the 23rd in the series will be held at the University of Manchester. The aim is to bring together academics and ...

The Thermodynamics 2017 conference will be the 25th meeting in a series of biennial thermodynamics conferences initiated in 1964 by Harold Springall, championed throughout the 1960s and 1970s by Max ...

Properties of materials in the superconducting state; charge flow dynamics of type II superconductors; high T c superconductors; applications for computers and high-frequency devices. REQUIRED TEXTS: ...
