The collapse of the primordial gas in the density regime $\sim 10^{8}\hbox{--}10^{10}$ cm$^{-3}$ is controlled by the three-body $\rm H_2$ formation process, in which the gas can cool faster than free-fall time $\hbox{--}$ a condition…
Thermodynamics unavoidably contains fluctuation theory, expressible in terms of a unique thermodynamic information metric. This metric produces an invariant thermodynamic Riemannian curvature scalar $R$ which, in fluid and spin systems,…
Context: Magnetohydrodynamic thermal modes may play an important role in the formation, plasma condensation, and evolution of solar prominences. Unstable thermal modes due to unbalance between radiative losses and heating can lead to rapid…
