Thermodynamically isolated systems normally relax to equilibria characterized by single temperatures; however, in recent years several systems have been identified that challenge this presumption, demonstrating stationary temperature gradients at equ

Energy is the lifeblood of civilization, but inexpensive, high energy density sources are rapidly being depleted and their exploitation is severely degrading the environment. This paper explores a radical solution to this energy-environmental dilemma

Two categories of life are currently recognized—chemosynthetic and photosynthetic—indicating their principal free energy resource as either chemicals or electromagnetic radiation. Building on recent developments in thermodynamics, we posit a thir

A new track and field event is proposed in which an elastic pole – essentially a pole vault pole – is used to jump for maximum horizontal distance. Analysis indicates that significant horizontal jumping distances are possible, perhaps in excess o

Recently a new type of pressure gradient was introduced, a gravitationally-induced, dynamically-maintained, steady-state pressure gradient (GDSPG) (D P Sheehan and J Glick 2000 Physica Scripta 61 635). In this paper, three dimensional numerical test

Under sealed blackbody cavity conditions, pressure gradients typically take three forms: (a) statistical fluctuations, (b) transients associated with the system relaxing toward equilibrium, and (c) equilibrium pressure gradients, such as those associ

Dusty plasmas are low-temperature, weakly ionized gases containing micron- to submicron-sized solid particles that are charged by plasma collection currents. In this theoretical note, we propose the possible use of dusty plasmas as substrates for sur

It is known that a turbulent, two-dimensional fluid at high Reynolds number under a suitable restoring force can evolve toward larger scales, that is, to waves and zonal jets. A two-dimensional disk of turbulent fluid gravitationally bound to a centr
