The paper argues that the third principle of thermodynamics follows from the second principle, rather than being a separate or independent concept. Professor José María Martín-Olalla of the University of Seville has published a paper addressing a thermodynamics problem that has remained unresolved for 120 years. In doing so, he corrects an idea proposed by […]



Summary

Professor Martín-Olalla’s paper challenges the traditional understanding of the third law of thermodynamics, arguing that it’s not an independent principle, but rather a consequence of the second law. This addresses a 120-year-old debate by revisiting and refining existing thermodynamic theories. The paper suggests a new perspective on how entropy behaves near absolute zero, potentially simplifying the fundamental understanding of thermodynamics. By linking the third law to the second, Martín-Olalla’s work aims to provide a more unified and conceptually elegant view of this cornerstone of physics.
