On the Second Law of thermodynamics and the piston problem
C. Gruber, S. Pache, A. Lesne
The piston problem is investigated in the case where the length of the cylinder is infinite (on both sides) and the ratio is a very small parameter, where is the mass of…
Two-time-scale relaxation towards thermal equilibrium of the enigmatic piston
C. Gruber, S. Pache, A. Lesne
We investigate the evolution of a system composed of non-interacting point particles of mass in a container divided into two chambers by a movable adiabatic piston of mass…
The controversial piston in the thermodynamic limit
Christian Gruber, Séverine Pache
We consider the evolution of a system composed of non-interacting point particles of mass in a container divided in two regions by a movable adiabatic wall (adiabatic pisto…
Deterministic motion of the controversial piston in the thermodynamic limit
Christian Gruber, Séverine Pache, Annick Lesne
We consider the evolution of a system composed of non-interacting point particles of mass in a cylindrical container divided into two regions by a movable adiabatic wall (t…
