Thermodynamics and Relativity: A basic question about the behavior of living matter

نویسنده

  • Jean-Louis Tane
چکیده

Experimental observations made upon a thermodynamic system containing a mixture of living matter and inert matter were published in the recent years. They seem incompatible with the usual conception of thermodynamics, but compatible with an extended conception which links thermodynamics and relativity. Nevertheless, they ask an interesting question about the behavior of living matter.

Inert Matter and Living Matter: A Thermodynamic Interpretation of their Fundamental Difference

This short paper deals with a possible link between a theory that I have previously suggested (an equation linking thermodynamics to relativity and gravitation) and experimental observations recently reported in the field of biology, showing that an isolated system can go increasing in mass if it is mainly occupied by living matter.

Einstein structures on four-dimensional nutral Lie groups

When Einstein was thinking about the theory of general relativity based on the elimination of especial relativity constraints (especially the geometric relationship of space and time), he understood the first limitation of especial relativity is ignoring changes over time. Because in especial relativity, only the curvature of the space was considered. Therefore, tensor calculations should be to...

محاسبات توماس- فرمی برای تعیین خواص بحرانی ماده هسته‌ای متقارن براساس رهیافت جرم مؤثر تعمیم‌یافته

Using mean-field and semi-classical approximation of Thomas-Fermi, within a statistical model, equation of state and critical properties of symmetric nuclear matter is studied.  In this model, two body and phenomenological interaction of Myers and Swiatecki is used in phase space. By performing  a functional variation of the total Helmholtz free energy of system with respect to the nucleonic di...

Thermodynamics and Relativity

1. Introduction. We have met to do honor to the memory of Josiah Willard Gibbs. By the labors of this master, the classical principles of thermodynamics were given their most complete and comprehensive expression. As the subject for the tenth memorial lecture, it seems appropriate to discuss the extensions to these classical principles which have since been made necessary by Einstein's discover...

Bulk Viscous Bianchi Type VI0 Cosmological Model in the Self-creation Theory of Gravitation and in the General Theory of Relativity

In the second self-creation theory of gravitation and in the general theory of relativity, Bianchi type VI0 cosmological model in the presence of viscous fluid is studied. An exact solution of the field equations is given by considering the cosmological model yields a constant decelerations parameter q=constant and the coefficients of the metric are taken as A(t)=[c1t+c<su...
