Thermodynamics and statistical physics provide a unified framework linking the macroscopic laws of energy, work, and entropy to the microscopic motions of particles. Thermodynamics, rooted in the laws ...
Though a cornerstone of thermodynamics, entropy remains one of the most vexing concepts to teach budding physicists in the classroom. Physics teachers designed a hand-held model to demonstrate the ...

Scientists Build Smallest Engine Ever, Hotter Than the Sun and Powered by Randomness
Scientists have built the world’s smallest engine. It consists of a single microscopic particle, smaller than a human cell, ...
Scientists have created the world's hottest engine running at temperatures hotter than those reached in the sun's core. The team from King's College London and collaborators believe their platform ...
A great number of scientific papers and publications come out of the Aspen Center for Physics, but none quite like Assa Auerbach’s latest. The Israeli physicist’s new graphic novel, “Max the Demon vs.
