Microscopic Dynamic Mechanism of Irreversible Thermodynamic Equilibration of Crystals

The dynamics of free and forced vibrations of a chain of particles are investigated in a harmonic model taking into account the retardation of interactions between atoms. It is found that the retardation of interactions between particles leads to the non-existence of stationary free vibrations of th...
