... Similarity: we are attempting to achieve a reversible evolution of a very large many-body system (on a microscopic level) in the presence of noise and using noisy devices. The idea, that quantum mechanics helps us to do it, looks strange, since all our experience in physics suggests that quantum eff ...

... as the energy required to create a system in the absence of changes in temperature or volume. But if the process changes the volume, as in a chemical reaction which produces a gaseous product, then work must be done to produce the change in volume. For a constant pressure process the work you must d ...

The last effect is greater, therefore the time goes more slowly on the earth than in the satellite. We have to use Einstein’s theory of relativity to adjust the ti ...

... Problem 20. In 1911, Ernest Rutherford and his assistants Hans Geiger and Ernest Mardsen conducted an experiment in which they scattered alpha particles from thin sheets of gold. An alpha particle, having a charge of qα = +2e and a mass of m = 6.64 · 10−27 kg is a product of certain radioactive deca ...
