Entropy Production in Relativistic Hydrodynamics
The entropy production occurring in relativistic hydrodynamical systems such as the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) formed in high-energy nuclear collisions is explored. We study mechanisms which change the composition of the fluid, i.e. particle production and/or chemical reactions, along with chemoand thermo-diffusion. These effects complement the conventional dissipative effects of shear viscosity,...
متن کاملEntropy Production: Its Role in Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics
It is unquestionable that the concept of entropy has played an essential role both in the physical and biological sciences. However, the entropy production, crucial to the second law, has also other features not clearly conceived. We all know that the main difficulty is concerned with its quantification in non-equilibrium processes and consequently its value for some specific cases is limited. ...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium thermodynamics, maximum entropy production and Earth-system evolution.
The present-day atmosphere is in a unique state far from thermodynamic equilibrium. This uniqueness is for instance reflected in the high concentration of molecular oxygen and the low relative humidity in the atmosphere. Given that the concentration of atmospheric oxygen has likely increased throughout Earth-system history, we can ask whether this trend can be generalized to a trend of Earth-sy...
متن کامل4 Maximum Entropy Production and Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics
Over the last 30 years empirical evidence in favour of the Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) principle for non-equilibrium systems has been accumulating from studies of phenomena as diverse as planetary climates, crystal growth morphology, bacterial metabolism and photosynthesis. And yet MEP is still regarded by many as nothing other than a curiosity, largely because a theoretical justification ...
متن کاملRelativistic fluctuating hydrodynamics
By applying the fluctuation dissipation theorem [1] to the Navier Stokes equation, Landau and Lifshitz developed long ago the standard theory of fluctuating hydrodynamics [2] [3] [4]. This theory is both appealing and successful, and it is consistent with the fluctuating hydrodynamics which is derived if fluctuation dissipation theory is first applied to the Boltzmann equation [5], and then the...
