The Classical–Quantum Passage: A van der Waals Description
We undertake a van der Waals inquiry at very low temperatures so as to find signs of a classical–quantum frontier. We investigate the relation of such signs with the celebrated van der Waals gas–liquid transition. We specialize the discussion with respect to the noble gases. For such purpose, we use...

description | We undertake a van der Waals inquiry at very low temperatures so as to find signs of a classical–quantum frontier. We investigate the relation of such signs with the celebrated van der Waals gas–liquid transition. We specialize the discussion with respect to the noble gases. For such purpose, we use rather novel thermal statistical quantifiers such as the disequilibrium, the statistical complexity, and the thermal efficiency. Fruitful insights are thereby gained. |
