Compressing hydrogen demands high pressures; liquefying it requires extreme cooling. Both approaches carry energy penalties, safety considerations, and infrastructure costs that limit wider adoption.

Imagine you’re standing in front of a closed door. Behind it is a teenager’s bedroom, and your task is to rate how messy it is on a scale of 1 to 10. But here’s the twist: you can’t open the door – ...

In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of thermodynamics, which states that entropy remains positive and vanishes at ...

Entropy is a key ingredient that you'll need to get the True Ending of Hades 2. Specifically, you'll need it for one of the Incantations you will perform to truly finish off your greatest foe, Chronos ...

After receiving his degree in Journalism & Media Communications from CSU in 2019, Erik began building his career in online media, and found his dream job when he joined Game Rant as a staff writer.

Quantum effects are now commonly used to achieve exceptionally precise measurements, but just how accurate can they get? According to new research from TU Wien and collaborators, published in Nature ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory tries to ...

Here are some smaller projects that illustrate text compression. Starting with the Huffman code and the exponential Golomb code (exp-golomb). There is also a best practice about Brotli-GZip.

Here are a few smaller projects that demonstrate the compression of texts. Starting with the Huffman Code and the Exponential Golomb Code (exp-golomb).

Entropy also increases in initially ordered quantum systems until it reaches a final state of disorder. Entropy and the direction of time Equating 'entropy' with 'disorder' is not entirely correct.
