Irreversibility time scale.
Entropy creation rate is introduced for a system interacting with thermostats (i.e., for a system subject to internal conservative forces interacting with "external" thermostats via conservative forces) and a fluctuation theorem for it is proved. As an application, a time scale is introduced, to be interpreted as the time over which irreversibility becomes manifest in a process leading from an ...
متن کاملTime scale, objectivity and irreversibility in quantum mechanics
For the physical interpretation of the formalism of quantum mechanics (QM) a classical world of sources and detectors of microsystems must be invoked in order to get rid of the so-called E.R.P. paradox and the subjectivity within the measuring process. Substituting invocation with high mathematical effort, Ludwig obtained QM as the description of a microphysical interaction channel between macr...
متن کاملTime series irreversibility: a visibility graph approach
We propose a method to measure real-valued time series irreversibility which combines two different tools: the horizontal visibility algorithm and the Kullback-Leibler divergence. This method maps a time series to a directed network according to a geometric criterion. The degree of irreversibility of the series is then estimated by the Kullback-Leibler divergence (i.e. the distinguishability) b...
متن کاملDoing time. The emergence of irreversibility
By considering an enterprise to be a system of agents that observe and construct theories about themselves immediately raises issues of closure. These in turn pose questions about the identity and evolution of that which is exhibiting such closure. We address these questions by assigning enterprises to a class of systems whose models are triply articulated. The existential articulation provides...
متن کاملTime-reversal invariance and irreversibility in time-asymmetric quantum mechanics
The aim of this paper is to analyze the concepts of time-reversal invariance and irreversibility in the so-called ’time-asymmetric quantum mechanics’. We begin with pointing out the difference between these two concepts. On this basis, we show that irreversibility is not as tightly linked to the semigroup evolution laws of the theory -which lead to its non time-reversal invarianceas usually sug...
