Moreover it is indeed quantum effects that are at work in bringing about universal thermodynamic behaviour of modest size open systems. Von Neumann`s concept of entropy thus appears as much more widely useful than sometimes feared, way beyond truely macrosopic systems in equilibrium. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Physics,$x0075-8450 ;$v657 606 $aQuantum physics 606 $aPhysics 606 $aThermodynamics 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aMathematical Methods in Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013 606 $aThermodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21050 615 0$aQuantum physics. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aThermodynamics. 615 14$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aMathematical Methods in Physics. 615 24$aThermodynamics. 676 $a530.12 700 $aGemmer$b Jochen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0497283 702 $aMichel$b Mathias$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aMahler$b Günter$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910257389003321 996 $aQuantum Thermodynamics$92526079 997 $aUNINA
