Molecular dynamics simulations of the evaporation of hydrated ions from aqueous solution

Philip Robin Loche

Although important for atmospheric processes and gas-phase catalysis, very little is known about the hydration state of ions in the vapor phase. Here we study the evaporation energetics and kinetics of a chloride ion from liquid water by molecular dynamics ...

Concentration of Multi-overlaps for Random Dilute Ferromagnetic Spin Models

Nicolas Macris, Jean François Emmanuel Barbier, Chun Lam Chan

We consider mean field ferromagnetic spin models on dilute random graphs and prove that, with suitable one-body infinitesimal perturbations added to the Hamiltonian, the multi-overlaps concentrate for all temperatures, both with respect to the thermal Gibb ...

Electromagnetic Nonreciprocity

Karim Achouri, Christophe Caloz

We aim at providing a global perspective on electromagnetic nonreciprocity and clarifying confusions that arose in recent developments of the field. We provide a general definition of nonreciprocity and classify nonreciprocal systems according to their lin ...

The underappreciated role of nonvolatile cations in aerosol ammonium-sulfate molar ratios

Athanasios Nenes, Hairun Guo

Overprediction of fine-particle ammonium-sulfate molar ratios (R) by thermodynamic models is suggested as evidence for interactions with organic constituents that inhibit the equilibration of gas-phase ammonia with aerosol sulfate and questions the equilib ...

pyTFA and matTFA: a Python package and a Matlab toolbox for Thermodynamics-based Flux Analysis

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Meriç Ataman, Georgios Fengos, Keng Cher Soh, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Summary: pyTFA and matTFA are the first published implementations of the original TFA paper. Specifically, they include explicit formulation of Gibbs energies and metabolite concentrations, which enables straightforward integration of metabolite concentrat ...

Negentropic linguistic evolution: A comparison of seven languages

Frédéric Kaplan, Vincent Christian Buntinx

The relationship between the entropy of language and its complexity has been the subject of much speculation – some seeing the increase of linguistic entropy as a sign of linguistic complexification or interpreting entropy drop as a marker of greater regul ...

Optimal energy dissipation in growing microorganisms and rectification columns

Urs von Stockar

This paper proposes a new point of view in analyzing the optimal Gibbs energy dissipation in growing microorganisms. Small Gibbs energy dissipation in growth would be of biological advantage because less resource is consumed and the biomass yield on these ...

Horava gravity versus thermodynamics: The black hole case

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Under broad assumptions, breaking of Lorentz invariance in gravitational theories leads to tension with unitarity because it allows for processes that apparently violate the second law of thermodynamics. The crucial ingredient of this argument is the exist ...

Thermodynamic assessment of the Cu-Ge binary system

Jian Wang, Alain Jacot, Christian Leinenbach, Shan Jin

The Cu-Ge binary system was assessed thermodynamically using the CALPHAD method through Thermocalc (R) software package based on the evaluation of all available experimental data from the published literature. The solution phases, including liquid, fcc, hc ...

Biothermodynamics of live cells: a tool for biotechnology and biochemical engineering

Urs von Stockar

The aim of this contribution is to review the application of thermodynamics to live cultures of microbial and other cells and to explore to what extent this may be put to practical use. A major focus is on energy dissipation effects in industrially relevan ...

Thermodynamic Calculations for Biochemical Transport and Reaction Processes in Metabolic Networks

Vassily Hatzimanikatis

Thermodynamic analysis of metabolic networks has recently generated increasing interest for its ability to add constraints on metabolic network operation, and to combine metabolic fluxes and metabolite measurements in a mechanistic manner. Concepts for the ...

Quasi-steady and steady states in global gyrokinetic particle-in-cell simulations

Laurent Villard, Alberto Bottino, Ben McMillan, Sébastien Jolliet, Paolo Angelino, Thibaut Vernay

Collisionless delta-f gyrokinetic particle-in-cell simulations suffer from the entropy paradox, in which the entropy grows linearly in time while low-order moments are saturated. As a consequence, these simulations do not reach a steady state and are unsui ...

Can microbial growth yield be estimated using simple thermodynamic analogies to technical processes?

Urs von Stockar

In view of the prime importance of the biomass yield in microbial growth for research, for environmental and for industrial applications some thermodynamic concepts are reviewed that were developed over the years in order to understand the large variations ...

Why Are Ionic Liquids Liquid? A Simple Explanation Based on Lattice and Solvation Energies

Paul Joseph Dyson, Corinne Daguenet

We have developed a simple and quant. explanation for the relatively low melting temps. of ionic liqs. (ILs). The basic concept was to assess the Gibbs free energy of fusion (ΔfusG) for the process IL(s) -> IL(l), which relates to the m.p. ...
