Entropy of liquid Na: the present calculation (red) and experimental data (black). The entropy value is normalized by the gas constant R. T 1 denotes the melting temperature. Osaka, Japan - A ...

A new study proposes a radically simple and efficient way of calculating the complex physical quantity known as entropy -- and it probably exists on your own computer. Entropy, a measure of the ...

For all its tumult — erupting stars, colliding galaxies, collapsing black holes — the cosmos is a surprisingly orderly place. Theoretical calculations have long shown that the entropy of the universe ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory tries to ...

Cars run out of petrol, stars run out of fuel and galaxies collapse into black holes. As they do, the universe and everything in it is gradually running down. But how run down is it? Researchers from ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Liquid metals have long fascinated materials scientists due to their unique properties that bridge the gap between solid and liquid states of matter. These materials, which remain ...
