Evolution of dissipative processes via a statistical thermodynamic approach. II. Thermodynamic properties of a fluid of bosons

Abstract

On the basis of the generalized Mori–Heisenberg–Langevin equations presented in the preceding paper, we derive and analyze the informational-statistical thermodynamic properties of a fluid of bosons away from equilibrium. We derive the informational entropy and its production, proceeding to an analysis of the several contributions to these state functions arising out of the evolution of dissipative processes in the system.
