Global thermodynamics for isothermal fluids under gravity
Naoko Nakagawa, Shin-ichi Sasa, Takamichi Hirao +3
We develop a formulation of global thermodynamics for equilibrium systems under the influence of gravity. The free energy for simple fluids is extended to include a dependence on $…

Gibbs Factorials Become Kinetic in History-Dependent Reactions
Nanako Hirano, Akira Yoshida, Takenobu Nakamura +1
Gibbs factorials are usually regarded as equilibrium counting factors. We show that they can also appear directly in a measurable kinetic observable when products formed at differe…

Heat-induced liquid hovering in liquid-gas coexistence under gravity
Akira Yoshida, Naoko Nakagawa, Shin-ichi Sasa
We study a liquid-gas coexistence system in a container under gravity with heat flow in the direction opposite to gravity. By molecular dynamics simulation, we find that the liquid…
