The #paperOfTheDay is a classic of #thermodynamics : "Equation of state in the Neighborhood of the critical point" from 1965. Here, Benjamin Widom introduces what is now known as "Widom scaling".
Generically, the properties of a fluid might depend on parameters, such as temperature or density, through power laws. There are certain critical points in the phase space, i.e. certain temperatures, densities, etc., where the behaviour of the fluid changes qualitatively. The observation is that close to the critical point, the exponents of the various power laws have different numerical values than what one would expect classically. For example, the specific heat diverges at a power law, but the exponent of divergence is not what one would expect from the conventional equation of state.
Widom's paper now makes a specific conjecture: Near a critical point, the equation of state should be altered by introducing an arbitrary function of density of temperature, however, this function is assumed to be homogeneous. That is if x is temperature and y is density, it is a function of the form e.g. x^c * f(y/x), where f is an arbitrary function of y/x, and c is a constant. It turns out that almost all experimental observations can be described from this conjecture without knowing the functional form of f. The scaling exponent c alone is sufficient to give rise to the non-classical power laws and the relations between them.
This paper is significant because it is an early (and purely heuristic) version of universality: The behaviour of systems in #statisticalPhysics at the critical point is largely determined from structural properties, independently of concrete details.

What are your plans for the second week of July? The correct answer is: to participate in the Sigma Phi Conference in Chania! From 6 July to 10 July, a huge event covering all topics of interest in Statistical Physics. And, there will be also a special workshop on Mathematical Ideas across Multiple Scales in Networks (or MAIMUN, for short), organized by yours truly and with an impressive lineup of speakers, including Ginestra Bianconi, Stefano Boccaletti, Sebastian Contreras, Piero De Lellis, Tiziana Di Matteo, Fakhteh Ghanbarnejad, Sarika Jalan, José Mendes, Osnat Mokryn and Punit Parmananda!

Please boost far and wide, and spread the news to students, colleagues, and anyone who may be interested!

I have a steam powered tea pot let me explain

It's one of those translucent plastic cylinders molded with a tight fitting lid that has two spouts: one with a square opening and another with a grate that doesn't filter small things like broken leaf tea.

Hot tea in this tea pot contains water with a high vapor pressure, one that is high enough to evaporate enough water to create a pressure large enough to lift the lid. The pressure inside and out was atmospheric pressure until water began evaporating from the tea I put in the tea pot.

The lid doesn't lift very far, but the bearing surface is tea, so the friction is low enough for the lid to move up.

Or conversely there is a small passage, albeit larger than all the rest, through which I can hear bubbles popping as the evaporated water leaves the tea pot. What was initially a flat interface between the membrane of tea and the external atmosphere was pushed out by this pressure difference. The push was the water vapor and air pushing against the surface tension of the tea membrane. It takes force to deform a fluid membrane.

So my steam powered tea pot is running on the heat energy in the hot tea inside it. The work it is doing could be lifting the lid but it surely is popping water bubbles that I can hear.

re-#introduction
Hi Fediscience! I am an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (Honolulu). I got here starting from Physics training with many scientific detours into data-driven models, complex systems, nanomaterial self-assembly, human learning of complex networks, naval ships, and design problems.
I grew up in Belarus and have *opinions* on that region of the world. I've been on Fediverse since late 2022 when *something* happened to our previous cybersocial infrastructure, but the previous server I was on is sunsetting. Please come say hi and recommend cool people to follow here.
I have a blog with longer thoughts on science-adjacent topics.

Ever since I read through the beginning of David Tong's statistical notes, I've been fascinated by how independent the notion of temperature is from laws of physics. To get a notion of "temperature of a system", basically all you need is 1/ a way to assign a set of possible microstates and macrostates (along with a probability distribution for them) to a system 2/ a notion of energy, that is, a quantity that is extensive (i.e. the energy of the combination of two systems is the sum of their individual energies) and conserved.

This got me thinking: in our universe, there are many more extensive, conserved quantities (mass, charge, linear/angular momentum along the x/y/z-axis...). What happens if you take the definition of temperature and just swap energy for one of those other quantities? I can't imagine no one has ever considered that!

“Metacognitive #MindStorm”

Can we build a metacognitive mind?

Most likely we do in some form perhaps . In its basic sense it’s simply thinking about thinking. Does it go deeper?

New preprint out, with Richard Mann and @elva, where we take a collective behaviour look on the emergence of foraging area in ants 🐜

For 2024 I would like to increase slightly my digital presence. In the personal side, uploading more music covers/compositions to Youtube and Instagram and here maybe generating some kind of (hopefully useful) academic content.

I've been thinking about writing 1-post reviews of papers I read, so I also force myself to read more papers. I'd be interested in commenting #statisticalphysics + #complexsystems, also to see if we can create a bigger network of statphys here in Mastodon.

The final version of our article published in Physica A is now available online:

New *continuing* faculty position in the physics of complex systems at @sydney_physics @Sydney_Science. It's a great environment with great colleagues (including me!) and a very competitive salary and benefits.

Please boost! 🤓😀

Exciting news! 🎉 My visionary project, grounded on complexity and network science to tackle climate change, has received a 1 million euro grant from the Italian Ministry for Research, under the prestigious FIS call (kind of "Italian ERC")! 🇮🇹🔬🌍

Immense gratitude to my collaborators and our outstanding research lab members for their unwavering support. Together, we're venturing into uncharted territories, unraveling the intricate connections between #ComplexSystems and #Climate impact. Ready to embark on this scientific journey and glad it's going to start at the Università degli Studi di Padova, a place where knowledge and ideas are truly free to flourish since 1222.

PS: Stay tuned, going to hire soon senior postdocs and PhDs.
