A review of standard quantum mechanics, including the Pauli Exclusion Principle, as it is applied to atomic species shows that the standard theory is not consistent with energy conservation. Particular focus is given to helium in which it is shown that energy conservation is only possible if the ‘ground state’ has electrons at two distinct energies. If the two electrons in the ground state, per...

We discuss the work-kinetic energy theorem and the mechanical energy conservation theorem in the context of general physics courses. The motivation is the fact that all modern texts on introductory mechanics show the same conceptually dangerous statement that besides obliterating the concept of mechanical work, diminishing the importance of the work-kinetic energy theorem, leads to erroneous ap...

Hawking has proposed non-unitary rules for computing the probabilistic outcome of black hole formation. It is shown that the usual interpretation of these rules violates the superposition principle and energy conservation. Refinements of Hawking’s rules are found which restore both the superposition principle and energy conservation, but leave completely unaltered Hawking’s prediction of a ther...

The building sector accumulates approximately a third of the final energy consumption. Consequently, the improvement of the energy efficiency in buildings has become an essential instrument in the energy policies to ensure the energy supply in the mid to long term moreover is the most cost-effective strategy available for reducing carbon dioxide emissions This paper is studying the main objecti...

In this paper we consider dynamics of non-stationary processes that follow the MaxEnt principle. We derive a set of equations describing dynamics of a system for Shannon and Tsallis entropies. Systems with discrete probability distribution are considered under mass conservation and energy conservation constraints. The existence and uniqueness of solution are established and asymptotic stability...

the study investigated secondary school students' environmental awareness in india and iran. nine hundred and ninety-one students were selected through the stratified random sampling technique from 103 secondary schools of mysore city (india) and tehran city (iran). subjects consisted of 476 boys and 515 girls. they were assessed using the environment awareness ability measure (eaam). resu...

The asymptotic convergence of probability density function (pdf) and convergence of differential entropy are examined for the non-stationary processes that follow the maximum entropy principle (MaxEnt) and maximum entropy production principle (MEPP). Asymptotic convergence of pdf provides new justification of MEPP while convergence of differential entropy is important in asymptotic analysis of ...
