T he second law of thermodynamics underpins all of classical reality. It is the reason why it's easier to make things messy, why you can’t have perpetual motion, why you age, and maybe even why ...

It’s all to do with the second law of thermodynamics, which was framed in the mid-19th Century. The second law was a major step forward for science, but it also felt like one giant leap ...

At the quantum level, the past and the future are indiscernible. That could have profound effects on the world we can see.

The second law of thermodynamics demands that the entropy of any closed macroscopic system should never decrease. The laws of physics naturally drive systems towards states of increasing disorder ...

“One of the most powerful laws is the second law of thermodynamics, which establishes that entropy—a measure of disorder in an isolated system – can only increase or stay the same, but it wi ...

While you may think that a larger lens would be able to produce fire with moonlight as it can collect more light, or focus it ...

In a surprising twist, a graduate student at UMass Amherst discovered a strange new fluid behavior that seems to defy ...
