Hey, guys, I wanted to see what you guys thought of this field of science. Well, Post!
Some stuff I know. (Some came from Wikipedia.) Quantum Thermodynamics is the study of heat and work dynamics in Quantum Systems. A central objective in Quantum Thermodynamics is the Quantitative and qualitative determination of the laws of Thermodynamics at the Quantum level in which uncertainty and probability begin to take effect. A fundamental question is: What remains of Thermodynamics if one goes to the extreme limit of small quantum systems having a few degrees of freedom?

Why the interest in this field of science? Can't you tell us something about it first?

Updated.. This was mainly for people who knew alot about it, as I want to learn more, but anyway, tell me what you guys think about it.

because everyone was too concerned with trying to be the only person named 'stick figure'

You made the thread. Give us a topic.

If you just want us to generally discuss an extremely advanced, specific topic that's barely understood by the scientific community, I think you're asking a bit much for an animation forum.

Go to the physics forum or something.

Well if you want to know more about quantum mechanics then you should look this up...its part of a longer movie but this should explain alot for you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0v-cvvyc-M

Plus im thinking about going into quantum mechanics but as of right now i cant tell you much about it
