Bayesian second law of thermodynamics.
We derive a generalization of the second law of thermodynamics that uses Bayesian updates to explicitly incorporate the effects of a measurement of a system at some point in its evolution. By allowing an experimenter's knowledge to be updated by the measurement process, this formulation resolves a tension between the fact that the entropy of a statistical system can sometimes fluctuate downward...

متن کاملEvolution and the second law of thermodynamics
Skeptics of biological evolution often claim that evolution requires a decrease in entropy, giving rise to a conflict with the second law of thermodynamics. This argument is fallacious because it neglects the large increase in entropy provided by sunlight striking the Earth. A recent article provided a quantitative assessment of the entropies involved and showed explicitly that there is no conf...
متن کاملIrreversibility and the second law of thermodynamics
The second law of thermodynamics has a curious status. Manymodern physicists regard it as an obsolete relic from a bygone age, while many others, even today, consider it one of the most firmly established and secure achievements of science ever accomplished. From the perspective of the foundations of physics, a particularly interesting question is its relationship with the notion of irreversibi...
متن کاملThe Second Law of Thermodynamics as a Force Law
The second law of thermodynamics states the increase of entropy, ∆S > 0, for real processes from state A to state B at constant energy from chemistry over biological life and engines to cosmic events. The connection of entropy to information, phase-space, and heat is helpful but does not immediately convince observers of the validity and basis of the second law. This gave grounds for finding a ...
