原文开头
Two hundred years after the laws of physics concerning heat and work were first devised, they could get a stronger mathematical underpinning, discovers Karmela Padavic-Callaghan THE theory of thermodynamics has helped us understand devices like engines for over 200 years, but its mathematical foundations have always been a bit too imprecise. Now, researchers are putting the theory on a firmer footing, with mathematics more commonly used to describe quantum fields. But although thermodynamics is a very successful theory, it has historically lacked mathematical rigour, says Bryan Roberts at the London School of Economics and Political Science. …
