چکیده

Entropy functionals are computed for non-stationary distributions of particles of Lorentz gas and hard disks. The distributions consisting of beams of particles are found to have the largest amount of entropy and entropy increase. The computations show exponentially monotonic increase during initial time of rapid approach to equilibrium. The rate of entropy increase is bounded by sums of positive Lyapounov exponents.

Entropy production in diffusion-reaction systems: the reactive random Lorentz gas.

We report the study of a random Lorentz gas with a reaction of isomerization A<==>B between two colors of moving particles elastically bouncing on hard disks. The reaction occurs when the moving particles collide on catalytic disks, which constitute a fraction of all the disks. Under dilute-gas conditions, the reaction-diffusion process is ruled by two coupled Boltzmann-Lorentz equations for th...

Influence of inclined Lorentz forces on entropy generation analysis for viscoelastic fluid over a stretching sheet with nonlinear thermal radiation and heat source/sink

In the present study, an analytical investigation on the entropy generation examination for viscoelastic fluid flow involving inclined magnetic field and non-linear thermal radiation aspects with the heat source and sink over a stretching sheet has been done. The boundary layer governing partial differential equations were converted in terms of appropriate similarity transformations to non-line...

We show that the induced parity–even Lorentz invariance violation can be unambiguously calculated in the physically justified and minimally broken dimensional regularization scheme, suitably tailored for a spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking in a field theory model. The quantization of the Lorentz invariance violating quantum electrodynamics is briefly examined and shown to be consistent eith...

In the preceding paper, we derived a kind of kinematical holographic relation (KHR) in the Lorentzcovariant Yang’s quantized space-time algebra (YSTA). It essentially reflects the fundamental nature of the noncommutative geometry of YSTA and its representation, that is, a definite kinematical reduction of spatial degrees of freedom in comparison with the ordinary lattice space. On the basis of ...
