Where Can I Find a Review of Relativistic Thermodynamics?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on finding resources for relativistic thermodynamics, highlighting key texts and research avenues. Recommended materials include "Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics" by Bob Wald and the article "Relativistic Thermodynamics of Gases" available at relativity.livingreviews.org. Participants express interest in the application of relativistic thermodynamics to nanosystems and cosmological systems, as well as the relativistic aspects of heat radiation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of reputable sources, steering clear of unreliable websites.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of relativistic physics concepts
  • Familiarity with thermodynamics principles
  • Knowledge of black hole thermodynamics
  • Basic comprehension of nanosystems in physics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics" by Bob Wald
  • Explore the article "Relativistic Thermodynamics of Gases" at relativity.livingreviews.org
  • Investigate the Ruppeiner and Weinhold metrics in black hole models
  • Look for research papers on relativistic heat radiation and its applications
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, researchers in thermodynamics, and students interested in the intersection of relativity and thermodynamics, particularly in advanced applications like nanosystems and cosmological phenomena.

Are there any relativistic thermodynamics book around or perhaps a physics review of this subject?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
If you do Google search, you will be offered a website linked to the 'Journal of Theoretics'. Don't go there, it is crackpot rubbish.

Try this

5 Relativistic Thermodynamics of Gases. 14-Field Theory5 Relativistic Thermodynamics of Gases. 14-Field Theory.

or this

Bob Wald's book "Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics" would be a great place to start. There also seems to be a lot of activity at the moment into the application of the Ruppeiner and Weinhold metrics from standard equilibrium thermodynamics to black hole models - check the ArXiv for details.
 
Relativistic Thermodynamics.

Can anyone please tell me anything about Relativistic Thermodynamics in nanosystems??
I need a brief description of such realistic nanosystems where relativistic thermodynamics is applicable.
Is it also applicable for cosmological systems??
Are there any research papers on this??
 
Relativistic Radiation.

Thanks for ur answers..Now can anyone tell me anything about relativistic aspects of heat radiation,i.e. heat flow between any two bodies moving with relativistic velocities??Any real life examples of such phenomenon??Are there any research papers available on this topic...Thanking in advance..

There is a section in Relativity, Thermodynamics and Cosmology, by Richard C. Tolman, Dover Pub. It starts on page 118 and ends on page 164.

Best wishes
