Configurational Information as Potentially Negative Entropy: The Triple Helix Model
Configurational information is generated when three or more sources of variance interact. The variations not only disturb each other relationally, but by selecting upon each other, they are also positioned in a configuration. A configuration can be stabilized and/or globalized. Different stabilizations can be considered as second-order variation, and globalization as a second-order selection. T...
متن کاملConfigurational Entropy in Chiral Solutions - Negative Entropy of Solvent Envelopes
A homogeneous solution of a chiral substance is acquired with an overall asymmetry which is expressed by a specific rotation of a linearly polarized light. Such a solution, despite being at a complete equilibrium, stores configurational entropy in a form of negative entropy which can be nullified by mixing with a solution of the opposite enantiomer. This abundant, yet quite a specific case of i...
متن کاملConfigurational Entropy Revisited
1548 Journal of Chemical Education • Vol. 84 No. 9 September 2007 • www.JCE.DivCHED.org Entropy change is categorized in some prominent general chemistry textbooks as being either positional (configurational) or thermal. Positional entropy focuses on the number of positions in space that can be occupied by the molecules of a system. Then, to the extent that more positions exist after a process ...
متن کاملThe “G” in the Triple Helix: Government as an Entrepreneur
A growing body of evidence has recently emerged suggesting a shifting government role in science, technology and innovation policy, from a passive investor to a pro-active entrepreneur that initiates and supports wide-ranging and targeted interventions with a multiplier effect in the economy This paper provides new insights into the dynamics of this shift by presenting the experience of the Fle...
متن کاملConfigurational entropy of hard spheres
We numerically calculate the configurational entropy Sconf of a binary mixture of hard spheres, by using a perturbed Hamiltonian method trapping the system inside a given state, which requires less assumptions than the previous methods [R.J. Speedy, Mol. Phys. 95, 169 (1998)]. We find that Sconf is a decreasing function of packing fraction φ and extrapolates to zero at the Kauzmann packing frac...
