Thermodynamics Revisited: Study Solves 120-Year-Old Problem and Corrects One of Einstein's Ideas

UNIVERSITY OF SEVILLE, SPAIN, JUN 17 – Professor José María Martín-Olalla resolves a 120-year-old thermodynamics issue by proving the Nernst theorem's link to the second law, correcting Einstein's earlier interpretation.

Summary by Phys.org
Nernst's theorem—a general experimental observation presented in 1905 that entropy exchanges tend to zero when the temperature tends to zero—has been directly linked to the second principle of thermodynamics in a paper published in The European Physical Journal Plus, whose sole author is University of Seville professor José Martín-Olalla.
