Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around the existence of a specific section on Physics Forums (PF) dedicated to classical and quantum entropy. Participants explore the organization of forum topics and the availability of focused discussions on this subject.

Discussion Character

  • Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses interest in finding a dedicated section for classical and quantum entropy on PF, noting difficulty in locating relevant discussions.
  • Another participant points out that a search for entropy yields numerous threads, suggesting that while there is no specific section, there are many discussions available.
  • A different participant confirms that there is no dedicated section but suggests choosing either the Classical or Quantum forum for related topics, with the option to request a thread move if necessary.
  • One participant clarifies their request for a specific forum, indicating that the existing threads appear disorganized.
  • Another participant states that having specialized subforums for every subject is not practical.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that there is no specific section for classical and quantum entropy, but there are differing views on the practicality of organizing such topics within existing forums.

I'm interested in classical and quantum entropy. Is there a section on PF devoted exclusively to this topic? I searched a few forum discussions but couldn't find anything.
I'm new here. Thank you.

I don't understand. I did a forum search for entropy and got page after page after page of threads.

No. But take your pick of either Classical or Quantum, whichever seems most fitting for a topic. If you choose wrongly, you can always ask to have the thread moved to a more appropriate forum.
 
Thanks for the reply. What I meant was a specific forum devoted to the topic. I saw the threads but they seem to be a little all over the place. I'll go through these again. Thanks again.
 
We don't have specialized subforums for every specialized subject, doesn't make much practical sense.
