Opposite Thermodynamic Arrows of Time
arXiv:cond-mat/9911101 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.83.5419
Abstract
A model in which two weakly coupled systems maintain opposite running thermodynamic arrows of time is exhibited. Each experiences its own retarded electromagnetic interaction and can be seen by the other. The possibility of opposite-arrow systems at stellar distances is explored and a relation to dark matter suggested.
