Electron-photon interaction and thermal disequilibrium irreversibility

Published by on | 2 Responses

Umberto Lucia (Politecnico di Torino) Atoms continuously interact with the photons of the electromagnetic fields in their environment. This electromagnetic interaction is the consequence of the thermal non-equilibrium. It introduces an element of randomness to atomic and molecular motion, which brings to the decreasing of path information required for microscopic reversibility of evolution. In any atomic electron-photon interaction an energy… Read more →
