  2. Third law of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_law_of_thermodynamics

    So it can be taken as zero, giving =. The Nernst statement concerns thermodynamic processes at a fixed, low temperature, for condensed systems , which are liquids and solids: The entropy change associated with any condensed system undergoing a reversible isothermal process approaches zero as the temperature at which it is performed approaches 0 K.

  3. Absolute zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_zero

    The electrons, being fermions, must be in different quantum states, which leads the electrons to get very high typical velocities, even at absolute zero. The maximum energy that electrons can have at absolute zero is called the Fermi energy. The Fermi temperature is defined as this maximum energy divided by the Boltzmann constant, and is on the ...

  5. Limit of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function

    Alternatively, the requirement that Y be a Hausdorff space can be relaxed to the assumption that Y be a general topological space, but then the limit of a function may not be unique. In particular, one can no longer talk about the limit of a function at a point, but rather a limit or the set of limits at a point.

  7. Helmholtz free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz_free_energy

    Since the total change in entropy must always be larger or equal to zero, we obtain the inequality W ≤ − Δ F . {\displaystyle W\leq -\Delta F.} We see that the total amount of work that can be extracted in an isothermal process is limited by the free-energy decrease, and that increasing the free energy in a reversible process requires work ...

  8. Black hole thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_thermodynamics

    In physics, black hole thermodynamics [1] is the area of study that seeks to reconcile the laws of thermodynamics with the existence of black hole event horizons.As the study of the statistical mechanics of black-body radiation led to the development of the theory of quantum mechanics, the effort to understand the statistical mechanics of black holes has had a deep impact upon the ...

  9. Critical field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_field

    On a microscopic scale, the magnetic field is not quite zero at the edges of any given sample – a penetration depth applies. For a type-I superconductor, the current must remain zero within the superconducting material (to be compatible with zero magnetic field), but can then go to non-zero values at the edges of the material on this ...
