Negative Specific Heat in Out-of-equilibrium Nonextensive Systems
We discuss the occurrence of negative specific heat in a nonextensive system which has an equilibrium second-order phase transition. The specific heat is negative only in a transient regime before equilibration , in correspondence to long-lasting metastable states. For these states standard equilibrium Bolzmann-Gibbs thermodynamics does not apply and the system shows non-Gaussian velocity distr...
متن کاملNegative Specific Heat in Astronomy, Physics and Chemistry
Starting from Antonov’s discovery that there is no maximum to the entropy of a gravitating system of point particles at fixed energy in a spherical box if the density contrast between centre and edge exceeds 709, we review progress in the understanding of gravitational thermodynamics. We pinpoint the error in the proof that all systems have positive specific heat and say when it can occur. We d...
متن کاملContinuous phase transition and negative specific heat in finite nuclei
The liquid-gas phase transition in finite nuclei is studied in a heated liquid-drop model where the nuclear drop is assumed to be in thermodynamic equilibrium with its own evaporated nucleonic vapor conserving the total baryon number and isospin of the system. It is found that in the liquid-vapor coexistence region the pressure is not a constant on an isotherm indicating that the transition is ...
متن کاملNegative specific heat, the thermodynamic limit, and ergodicity.
Thermodynamic stability, in particular, the positivity of the specific heat in the microcanonical ensemble, is not an automatic consequence of the thermodynamic limit. But it holds under special circumstances such as for the most important case of quantum-mechanical Coulomb systems. Therefore, it is surprising that there are experimental indications to the contrary. In this Letter we study a si...
متن کاملNegative specific heat in a quasi-2D generalized vorticity model.
Negative specific heat is a dramatic phenomenon where processes decrease in temperature when adding energy. It has been observed in gravo-thermal collapse of globular clusters. We now report finding this phenomenon in bundles of nearly parallel, periodic, single-sign generalized vortex filaments in the electron magnetohydrodynamic model for the unbounded plane under strong magnetic confinement....
