Researchers have made a breakthrough in applying the first law of thermodynamics to complex systems, rewriting the way we ...

As Homer Simpson once famously phrased, “ in this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics ,” but a new and completely ...

Thermodynamic properties play a central role in understanding electrochemical systems, offering insights into the energy exchanges and phase equilibria governing material behaviour. Advances in ...

Supramolecular assemblies are essential for biological function and in many aspects the field of supramolecular chemistry has been inspired by biology. Compelling illustrations of complex assemblies ...

Most thermodynamic measurements of binding reactions rely on the validity of the law of mass action and the assumption of a dilute solution. Yet, important biological systems such as allosteric ligand ...

The performance and reliability of machines and devices reduce as they age. Currently, inaccurate degradation ...

A new study from Rice University in Houston, Texas, has explored the potential of converting waste heat from data centers into a dispatchable power source. The study published in the journal Solar ...

Researchers have encountered a partial violation of the second law of thermodynamics in a quantum system known as Hofstadter lattice. This partial violation has no place within the framework of ...
