entropi

Also known as thermodynamic entropy

fysikalisk tillståndsfunktion

AI overview

Entropy is a measure of disorder, randomness, or uncertainty that appears throughout nature and science, from the behavior of heat and molecules to the organization of information. It matters because understanding entropy helps explain fundamental processes in physics, chemistry, biology, economics, and technology—essentially how systems change and evolve across virtually all scientific disciplines.

Entropi är en fysikalisk tillståndsfunktion, betecknad S. Inom statistisk mekanik kan den ses som ett mått på sannolikheten för att ett system skall inta ett visst tillstånd; inom termodynamik snarare som ett mått på hur mycket av värmeenergin i ett system som inte kan omvandlas till arbete. Entropibegreppet används dessutom inom statistik, informationsteori, psykologi, och teorier om sinnet.
