Primes¶
- Dissipation
- Dissipation decomposes any energy- or order-degrading process into five concrete roles: an organized energy or structural form (kinetic energy, electrical current, ordered information, organized flow, low-entropy biomass), a dissipative mechanism (friction, resistance, viscosity, turbulence, erasure, trophic transfer), a transformation pathway (the organized form becomes a less-organized form, typically heat or noise), an entropy increase of the surroundings (the irreversibility ledger entry), and a rate or characteristic timescale (how fast the dissipation occurs, often a function of system parameters and driving forces), a decomposition that de Groot and Mazur (1962) systematized in their classical treatment of non-equilibrium thermodynamics through linear relationships between thermodynamic forces and fluxes.
This sourceNorth-Holland, Amsterdam. Canonical formalism of non-equilibrium thermodynamics: develops dissipation as the specific thermodynamic mechanism (entropy production from coupled fluxes and forces) that makes a process irreversible, distinguishing dissipative from path-dependent and constraint-bound irreversibilities.

- Signal Decay and Fadeout
- Conversely, a system can move toward equilibrium without signals decaying in the classical sense, a kinetic-versus-thermodynamic separation de Groot and Mazur (1962) make rigorous in non-equilibrium thermodynamics by distinguishing rate-law (kinetic) decay from entropy-production (thermodynamic) approach to equilibrium.
