We comment that the model proposed in Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 120603 (2012) violates the dynamical version of the third law of thermodynamics. We discuses the different formulations of the third law of thermodynamics and suggest a possible…
We have reviewed the Comment of Geyer et al. [arXiv:0708.1548] concerning our recent work [Phys. Rev. A 75, 060102 (R) (2007)], and while we disagree with their criticisms, we acknowledge them for giving us the opportunity to add…
Heat and energy are conceptually different, but often are assumed to be the same without justification. An effective method for investigating diffusion properties in equilibrium systems is discussed. With this method, we demonstrate that…
Flaws and ambiguities are pointed out upon examining the comment attempting to solve a problem as raised recently --- the currently accepted formulation of electromagnetic radiation of an accelerated charge violates the principle of…
This work investigates the two-dimensional thermal behavior of a bilayer medium subject to both internal and external heat sources. The model incorporates diffusion, advection, and temperature-dependent volumetric heat generation or…
In a recent letter (PRL 95, 190601 (2005)), T.M. Rocha Filho and coworkers address the very interesting issue of the entropic form to be used for Hamiltonians with long-range interactions. In our opinion the letter misses several points…
In a recent paper by A. Das and X. Zhou [Phys. Rev. D 68, 065017 (2003)] it is claimed that explicit evaluation of the thermal photon self-energy in the Schwinger model gives off-shell thermal Green functions that are different in…
We report an unconventional temperature dependence of the resistivity in several strongly correlated systems approaching a localized to itinerant electronic transition from the itinerant electron side. The observed resistivity, proportioanl…
I criticize certain conclusions about the physics of hadrons drawn from a "valence QCD" approximation to QCD.
We demonstrate that the generalization of the Lifshitz theory proposed by L. P. Pitaevskii arXiv:0801.0656 [Phys. Rev. Lett. v.101, 163202 (2008)] violates the Nernst heat theorem for many dielectric materials and is experimentally…
The paper reports on the solution in the semi-space corresponding to topological surface state. It was shown that the exponential surface state results from selection of the energy outside the allowed energy range. In the result, the…
It is pointed out that current conservation alone does not suffice to prove Hara's theorem as it was claimed recently. By explicit calculation we show that the additional implicit assumption made in such "proofs" is that of a sufficiently…
In the framework of the Caldeira-Leggett model of dissipative quantum mechanics, we investigate the effects of the interaction of the thermal reservoir with an external field. In particular, we discuss how the interaction modifies the…
Under externally applied electric fields, lipid membranes tend to permeate and change their electrical resistance by the combined processes of pore creation and pore evolution (expansion or contraction). This study is focused on the pore…
Herein I respond to the criticism and to the complains by Benestad (Pattern Recogn. Phys. 1, 91-92, 2013, http://dx.doi.org/10.5194/prp-1-91-2013) of Scafetta (Pattern Recogn. Phys. 1, 37-57, 2013, http://dx.doi.org/10.5194/prp-1-37-2013)…
We show that the conclusion on the breakdown of the standard small polaron theory made recently by E.V. deMello and J. Ranninger (Phys. Rev. B 55, 14872 (1997)) is a result of an incorrect interpretation of the electronic and vibronic…
The Comment by Quintero et al (arXiv:1309.1065[nlin.PS])does not dispute the central result of our paper [Phys. Rev. E {87}, 062114 (2013)] which is a theory explaining the interplay between thermal noise and symmetry breaking in the…
We formulate the problem of near-field radiative heat transfer as an effective quantum scattering theory for excitations of the matter. Built from the same ingredients as the semiclassical fluctuational electrodynamics, the standard tool to…
We present a Reply to the Comment by G. L. Klimchitskaya, arXiv:2501.14803 [physics.atom-ph]. It is shown that the criticism formulated in the Comment fails to appreciate recently obtained results for the upper limit of the short-range…
We comment on the macroscopic model for surface plasmons of H.-Y. Deng [New J. Phys. 21 (2019) 043055; arXiv:1712.06101] and a claim, based on energy conversion from charges to the electric field, that surface plasmons on metallic surfaces…
