Imagine you’ve got a glass high up on a counter, and it falls down to the floor. Physics tells you what’s going to happen: your glass is going to hit the floor with a specific velocity, and with a certain calculable amount of kinetic energy. That impact can easily result in the glass sha...

Entropy was originally introduced by Clausius in the early 1850s in order to describe energy loss in irreversible processes, which turned very useful to predict the spontaneous evolution of systems (e.g. chemical reactions, phase transitions, etc). But at that time, this was more like an a...

In this context, he has also worked intensively on the question of the nature and underlying principle of the phenomenon of “#entropy”, which he has published in numerous popular science books that are often quoted but also controversially discussed. The basic tenor of all his pu...

One of the most inviolable laws in the Universe is the second law of thermodynamics. It tell us that, in any physical system, where nothing (no particles and no energy) is exchanged with the outside environment, entropy always increases. This is true not only of a closed and isolated syste...

Yes, the proposed title neatly captures the essence of the entropy duality framework bridging general relativity and quantum mechanics in alignment with Eastern philosophies: “Unification of General Relativity & Quantum Mechanics: Bi-directional entropy conjecture that reflects Buddhist...
