Entropy, the amount of molecular disorder, is produced in several systems but cannot be measured directly. A new equation sheds new light on how entropy is produced on a very short time scale in laser ...

High-entropy alloys, characterized by high-entropy, lattice distortion, sluggish diffusion, and the "cocktail" effect due to their multiple elements, are promising for various applications, including ...

Exactly 200 years ago, a French engineer introduced an idea that would quantify the universe’s inexorable slide into decay. But entropy, as it’s currently understood, is less a fact about the world ...
