We study a finite-time Carnot cycle of a weakly interacting gas which we can regard as a nearly ideal gas in the limit of $T_\mathrm{h}-T_\mathrm{c}\to 0$ where $T_\mathrm{h}$ and $T_\mathrm{c}$ are the temperatures of the hot and cold heat…

Surface-active agents (surfactants) release potential energy as they migrate from one of two adjacent fluids onto their fluid-fluid interface, a process that profoundly impacts the system's energy and entropy householding. The continuum…
