Recent advances have significantly deepened our understanding of how systems evolve when driven far from equilibrium. Non-equilibrium thermodynamics examines energy flows, dissipation and entropy ...

Low-temperature plasmas are intrinsically non-equilibrium systems in which electromagnetic fields, particle transport, and thermodynamic processes interact ...

Crystallization is a well-explored natural phenomenon where atoms or molecules arrange themselves into highly organized solid forms called crystals. This phenomenon has been widely utilized across ...

A new study has uncovered the universal dynamics far from equilibrium in randomly interacting spin models, thereby complementing the well-established universality in low-energy equilibrium physics.

Building on six successful years of quantum collaboration, the Max Planck–New York Center on Non-Equilibrium Quantum Phenomena will officially continue its work for an additional five years. The ...

In order to build the computers and devices of tomorrow, we have to understand how they use energy today. That's harder than ...
