Kinetic theory of gases: stochastic thermodynamics avant la lettre
We show that the kinetic theory of gases developed by Clausius, Maxwell, and Boltzmann can be understood as stochastic thermodynamics. This comprehension is based on the recognition that the dynamics used by Maxwell to demonstrate his distribution of velocities and by Boltzmann to derive his fundame...
