Entropy, the amount of molecular disorder, is produced in several systems but cannot be measured directly. A new equation sheds new light on how entropy is produced on a very short time scale in laser ...

In their quest for more-efficient catalysts and better battery components, scientists are exploring a new category of materials known as high-entropy oxides. These oxides, made from five or more ...

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 ...

Next-generation technology requires next-generation materials that can be tailored to exact mission requirements. Additive ...

A view of the honeycomb lattice, with a triangular region indicated with the black sites (spheres). The electrons in the model studied by the researchers can jump between sites of this lattice, and ...
