Topic 2 The first law of thermodynamics
... If two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third system, they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other. If A and C are each in thermal equilibrium with B, A is also in equilibrium with C. Temperature as a quality of heat, by Galileo and Newton The temperatures are equal for all systems ...

We live in a Newtonian world, in an Einsteinian universe, where quantum effects are critically important and yet gravity, the weakest of all known forces, governs the ultimate fate of all that there is. We also live in a world in which science and technology are integral parts of our everyday lives. ...

Theory of causal entropic forces is based on the idea of maximizing causal path entropy by evaluating path probabilities upto a finite time horizon τ instead of greedily maximizing instantaneous entropy production [1]. However, adhering to classical thermodynamics, one cannot fully explain the origi ...
