Is Gravity an Entropic Force?

Gao, Shan

2011 Entropy

doi:10.3390/e13050936

The remarkable connections between gravity and thermodynamics seem to imply that gravity is not fundamental but emergent, and in particular, as Verlinde suggested, gravity is probably an entropic force. In this paper, we will argue that the idea of gravity as an entropic force is debatable. It is...

The Decoherence of the Electron Spin and Meta-Stability of 13C Nuclear Spins in Diamond

Crompton, Peter

2011 Entropy

doi:10.3390/e13050949

Following the recent successful experimental manipulation of entangled 13C atoms on the surface of Diamond, we calculate the decoherence of the electron spin in Nitrogen Vacancy NV centers of Diamond via a nonperturbative treatment of the time-dependent Greens function of a Central-Spin model in...

The Michaelis-Menten-Stueckelberg Theorem

Gorban, Alexander N.; Shahzad, Muhammad

2011 Entropy

doi:10.3390/e13050966

We study chemical reactions with complex mechanisms under two assumptions: (i) intermediates are present in small amounts (this is the quasi-steady-state hypothesis or QSS) and (ii) they are in equilibrium relations with substrates (this is the quasiequilibrium hypothesis or QE). Under these...
