Callen's Adiabatic Piston and the Limits of the Second Law of Thermodynamics
Bruno Crosignani, Paolo Di Porto, Claudio Conti
The limits of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which reigns undisputed in the macroscopic world, are investigated at the mesoscopic level, corresponding to spatial dimensions of a…

Entropy Decrease in Isolated Systems with an Internal Wall undergoing Brownian Motion
B. Crosignani, P. Di Porto
We consider an isolated gaseous system, divided in two parts by an adiabatic movable frictionless internal wall undergoing Brownian motion. We show how this kind of motion can lead…
