Thermodynamic Analysis of a Self-Gravitating Gas in Astrophysical Contexts
Christine Gruber
The thermodynamics of a self-gravitating gas cloud of particles interacting only via their gravitational potential is an interesting problem with peculiarities arising due to the l…
Statistical origin of Legendre invariant metrics
V. Pineda-Reyes, Lenin F. Escamilla-Herrera, Christine Gruber +2
Legendre invariant metrics have been introduced in Geometrothermodynamics to take into account the important fact that the thermodynamic properties of physical systems do not depen…
Reparametrizations and metric structures in thermodynamic phase space
Viridiana Pineda-Reyes, Lenin F. Escamilla-Herrera, Christine Gruber +2
We investigate the consequences of reparametrizations in the geometric description of thermodynamics analyzing the effects on the thermodynamic phase space. It is known that the co…
Non-extensive statistical mechanics of a self-gravitating gas
Lenin Escamilla-Herrera, Christine Gruber, Viridiana Pineda +1
The statistical mechanics of a cloud of particles interacting via their gravitational potentials is an old problem which encounters some issues when the traditional Boltzmann-Gibbs…
An effective model for inflation from geometrothermodynamics: a detailed analysis of thermodynamics and cosmological perturbations
Christine Gruber, Hernando Quevedo
Inflationary models usually assume the existence of scalar fields or other exotic gravitational sources. We investigate an alternative approach in which the entire Universe is cons…
The zeroth law in quasi-homogeneous thermodynamics and black holes
Alessandro Bravetti, Christine Gruber, Cesar S. Lopez-Monsalvo +1
Motivated by black holes thermodynamics, we consider the zeroth law of thermodynamics for systems whose entropy is a quasi-homogeneous function of the extensive variables. We show…
