Mechanics of Uncertainty: Managing Uncertainty in Mechanics
Uncertainty is ubiquitous in the natural, engineered, and social environments. Devising rationales for explaining it, strategies for its integration into scientific determinism and mitigating its consequences has been an active arena of rational endeavor where many scientific concepts have taken turn at fame and infamy. Far from being a static concept, uncertainty is the complement of knowledge...
متن کاملOn dispersion relations and the statistical mechanics of Hawking radiation
We analyze the interplay between dispersion relations for the spectrum of Hawking quanta and the statistical mechanics of such a radiation. We first find the general relation between the occupation number density and the energy spectrum of Hawking quanta and then study several cases in details. We show that both the canonical and the microcanonical picture of the evaporation lead to the same li...
متن کاملUncertainty, entropy, and the statistical mechanics of microscopic systems.
Noting that quantum measurements are in general incomplete, we develop, starting from a recent entropic formulation of uncertainty, a mazimum uncertainty principle to define the statistical mechanics of microscopic systems. The resulting ensemble entropy coincides with the expression of von Neumann, thus providing a unified, quantum basis for statistical physics of all systems. Examples involvi...
متن کاملBose-Einstein condensation, fluctuations, and recurrence relations in statistical mechanics
We calculate certain features of Bose–Einstein condensation in the ideal gas by using recurrence relations for the partition function. The grand canonical ensemble gives inaccurate results for certain properties of the condensate that are accurately provided by the canonical ensemble. Calculations in the latter can be made tractable for finite systems by means of the recurrence relations. The i...
متن کاملOrbital measures in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics: the Onsager relations Short title: Orbital Measures in Statistical Mechanics
We assume that the properties of nonequilibrium stationary states of systems of particles can be expressed in terms of weighted orbital measures, i.e. through periodic orbit expansions. This allows us to derive the Onsager relations for systems of N particles subject to a Gaussian thermostat, under the assumption that the entropy production rate is equal to the phase space contraction rate. Mor...
