Entropy, a measure of the molecular disorder or randomness of a system, is critical to understanding a system’s physical composition. In complex physical systems, the interaction of internal elements ...

A new study proposes a radically simple and efficient way of calculating the complex physical quantity known as entropy -- and it probably exists on your own computer. Entropy, a measure of the ...

Entropy of liquid Na: the present calculation (red) and experimental data (black). The entropy value is normalized by the gas constant R. T 1 denotes the melting temperature. Osaka, Japan - A ...

A groundbreaking new method developed at the University of Osaka calculates the entropy of liquids using a non-empirical approach, requiring only the atomic species as input. The paper is published in ...
