Nanothermodynamics: Theory and Applications
Dick Bedeaux, Signe Kjelstrup, Sondre K. Schnell
This book explains and applies the systematic thermodynamic theory of small systems proposed by Hill. It uses and extends his method. The basic ideas of the theory are highlighted, and the power of the theory in and away from equilibrium is demonstrated in several applications. Hill’s theory applies also to small particle numbers. It accounts for small-system effects. Size and shape are central. There are scaling laws, which help us determine and understand the small system and large system-limit better. The book cover shows scaling of spheres. Kirkwood-Buff integrals are defined and calculated also for small volumes.
