+** The Second Law: Discussion
+
+We have emphasized the distinction between the weak and strong forms 
+of the second law
+because (with the exception of Boltzmann's original unsuccessful
+argument based on the H-theorem), most attempts to deduce the
+second law from statistical mechanics have considered only the
 weak form; whereas it is evidently the strong form that leads
 to definite quantitative predictions, and is therefore needed
+for most applications. As we will see later, a demonstration of
+the weak form is today almost trivial---given the Hamiltonian form
+of the equations of motion, the weak form is a necessary 
+condition for any experiment to be reproducible. But demonstration
+of the strong form is decidedly nontrivial; and we recognize from
+the start that the job of statistical mechanics is not complete
+until that demonstration is accomplished.
 
 
+As we have noted, there are many different forms of the
+seoond law, that have been favored by various authors. With
+regard to the entropy statement of the second law, we note the
+following. In the first place, it is a direct statement of 
+experimental fact, verified in many thousands of quantitative 
+measurements, /which have actually been performed/. This is worth a
+great deal in an age when theoretical physics tends to draw
+sweeping conclusions from the assumed outcomes of 
+\ldquo{}thought-experiments.\rdqquo{} Secondly, it has stood the test 
+of time; it is the entropy statement which remained valid in the case
+of negative spin temperatures, where some others failed. Thirdly, it
+is very easy to apply in practice, the weak form leading 
+immediately to useful predictions as to which processes will go and
+which will not; the strong form giving quantitative predictions
+of the equilibrium state. At the present time, therefore, we
+cannot understand what motivates the unceasing attempts of many
+textbook authors to state the second law in new and more 
+complicated ways.
+
+One of the most persistent of these attempts involves the
+use of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_law_of_thermodynamics#Principle_of_Carath.C3.A9odory][Carath\eacute{}odory's principle]]. This states that, in the 
+neighborhood of any thermodynamic state there are other states which
+cannot be reached by an adiabatic process. After some mathematical
+analysis 
+[Margenau and Murphy (1943), pp. 26-31; or Wannier (1966),
+pp. 126-132] 
+one infers the existence of a state function (entropy) which tends 
+to increase; or at least, cannot decrease. From a /mathematical/ 
+standpoint there can be no objection at all to this; the analysis 
+is quite rigorous. But from a /physical/ standpoint it is subject 
+to the same objection that its premise is an impossibility 
+statement, and therefore not an experimental fact. 
+Indeed, the conclusion of Carath\eacute{}odory's
+argument is a far more direct statement of observed fact than its
+premise; and so it would seem more logical to use the argument
+backwards. Thus, from the experimental fact that the entropy
+tends to increase, we would infer that there must exist 
+neighboring states inaccessible in an adiabatic process; but the
+result is then trivial. In a similar way, other impossibility
+statements follow trivially from the entropy statement of the
+second law.
+
+
+Finally, we note that all statements of the second law are
+subject to a very important qualification, not always sufficiently
+emphasized. As we stress repeatedly, conventional thermodynamics
+is a theory only of states of thermal equilibrium; such concepts
+as temperature and entropy are not even defined for others. 
+Therefore, all the above statements of the second law must be under
+stood as describing only the /net result/ of processes /which begin
+and end in states of complete thermal equilibrium/. Classical
+thermodynamics has nothing to say about processes that do not
+meet this condition, or about intermediate states of processes
+that do. Again, it is nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) 
+experiments which provide the most striking evidence showing how 
+essential this qualification is; the spin-echo experiment 
+(Hahn, 1950) is, as we will see in detail later, a gross violation of
+any statement of the second law that fails to include it.
+
+
+This situation has some interesting consequences, in that
+impossibility statements may be misleading if we try to read too
+much into them. From classical thermodynamics alone, we cannot
+logically infer the impossibility of a \ldquo{}perpetual motion machine\rdquo{}
+of the second kind (i.e., a machine which converts heat energy
+into useful work without requiring any low temperature heat sink,
+as does the Carnot engine); we can infer only that such a machine
+cannot operate between equilibrium states. More specifically, if
+the machine operates by carrying out some cyclic process, then
+the states of (machine + environment) at the beginning and end
+of a cycle cannot be states of complete thermal equilibrium, as
+in the reversible Carnot engine. But no real machine operates
+between equilibrium states anyway. Without some further analysis
+involving statistical mechanics, we cannot be at all certain that
+a sufficiently clever inventor could not find a way to convert
+heat energy into useful work on a commercially profitable scale;
+the energy is there, and the only question is whether we could
+persuade it to \ldquo{}organize\rdquo{} itself enough to perform useful work
+against pistons, magnets, gravitational or electric fields,
+chemical activation energy hills, etc.
+
+
+It was Maxwell himself who first ([[../sources/Maxwell-Heat.pdf][1871]])[fn::See also, the [[http://openlibrary.org/books/OL7243600M/Theory_of_heat][Open Library
+page]], where you can read and download Maxwell's book in a variety of formats.] suggested such 
+possibilities, in his invention of the \ldquo{}Maxwell Demon\rdquo{}, 
+an imaginary being (or mechanism) which can regulate valves so as to allow
+fast molecules to pass through a partition in one direction only,
+thus heating up one side at the expense of the other. We could
+then allow the heat to flow back from the hot side to the cold
+through a conventional Carnot engine, generating useful work; and
+the whole arrangement would constitute a perpetual motion machine
+of the second kind.
+

+
+Maxwell did not regard such a device as impossible in principle; 
+only very difficult technically. Later authors ([[../sources/Szilard.pdf][Szilard, 1929]];
+Brillouin, 1951, 1956) 
+have argued, on the basis of quantum
+theory or connections between entropy and information, that it
+fundamentally impossible. However, all these arguments seem
+to contain just enough in the way of questionable assumptions or
+loopholes in the logic, as to leave the critical reader not quite
+convinced. This is particularly so when we recall the lessons
+of history; clever experimenters have, over and over again, made
+fools of theorists who were too quick to assert that something
+cannot be done.
+
+
+A recent example worth recalling concerns the Overhauser
+effect in magnetic resonance (enhancement of the polarization
+of one set of spins by irradiation of another set coupled to them).
+When this effect was first proposed, several well-known 
+authorities on thermodynamics and statistical mechanics ridiculed the
+suggestion and asserted that the effect could not possibly exist,
+because it violated the second law of thermodynamics. This 
+incident is a valuable reminder of how little we really understand
+the second law, or how to apply it in new situations.
+
+In this connection, there is a fascinating little gadget
+known as the Hilsch tube or Vortex tube, in which a jet of
+compressed air is injected into a pipe at right angles to its
+axis, but off center so that it sets up a rapid rotational
+motion of the gas. In some manner, this causes a separation of
+the fast and slow molecules, cold air collecting along the axis
+of the tube, and hot air at the walls. On one side of the jet,
+a diaphragm with a small hole at the center allows only the cold
+air to escape, the other side is left open so that the hot air
+can escape. The result is that when compressed air at room
+temperature is injected, one can obtain air from the hot side
+at +100^\circ F from the cold side at -70^\circ F, in sufficient quantities
+to be used for quick-freezing small objects, or for cooling
+photomultiplier tubes [for construction drawings and experi
+mental data, see Stong (1960); for a partial thermodynamic
+analysis, see Hilsch (19-47)].
+
+Of course, the air could also be cooled by adiabatic expansion 
+(i.e., by doing work against a piston); and it appears that
+the amount of cooling achieved in vortex tubes is comparable to,
+but somewhat less than, what could be obtained this way for the
+same pressure drop. However, the operation of the vortex tube
+is manifestly not simple adiabatic since no work is
+done; rather, part of the gas is heated up, at the cost of cooling
+the rest; i.e., fast and slow molecules are separated spatially.
+There is, apparently, no violation of the laws of thermodynamics,
+since work must be supplied to compress the air; nevertheless,
+the device resembles the Maxwell Demon so much as to make one
+uncomfortable.. This is so particularly because of our 
+embarrassing inability to explain in detail (i.e., in molecular terms)
+how such asimple device works. If we did understand it, would
+we be able to see still more exciting possibilities? No one
+knows.
+
+
+It is interesting to note in passing that such considerations 
+were very much in Planck's mind also; in his [[http://books.google.com/books?id=kOjy3FQqXPQC&printsec=frontcover][/Treatise on Thermodynamics/]] (Planck, 1897; 116), he begins his discussion
+of the second law in these words (translation of A. Ogg): 
+#+begin_quote 
+\ldquo{}We
+$\ldots$ put forward the following proposition $\ldots$ : 
+/it is impossible to construct an engine which will work a complete cycle,
+and produce no effect except the raising of a weight and the cooling of a heat-reservoir./ Such an engine could be used simultaneously
+as a motor and a refrigerator without any waste of energy or
+material, and would in any case be the most profitable engine
+ever made. It would, it is true, not be equivalent to perpetual
+motion, for it does not produce work from nothing, but from the
+heat which it draws from the reservoir. It would not, therefore,
+like perpetual motion, contradict the principle of energy, but
+would nevertheless possess for man the essential advantage of
+perpetual motion, the supply of work without cost; for the in
+exhaustible supply of heat in the earth, in the atmosphere, and
+in the sea, would, like the oxygen of the atmosphere, be at
+everybody ‘s immediate disposal. For this reason we take the
+above proposition as our starting point. Since we are to deduce
+the second law from it, we expect, at the same time, to make a
+most serviceable application of any natural phenomenon which may
+be discovered to deviate from the second law.\rdquo{}
+#+end_quote
+The ammonia maser ([[../sources/Townes-Maser.pdf][Townes, 1954]]) is another example of an
+experimental device which, at first glance, violates the second
+law by providing \ldquo{}useful work\rdquo{} in the form of coherent microwave
+radiation at the expense of thermal energy. The ammonia molecule
+has two energy levels separated by 24.8 GHz, with a large electric
+dipole moment matrix element connecting them. We cannot obtain
+radiation from ordinary ammonia gas because the lower state
+populations are slightly greater than the upper, as given by
+the usual Boltzmann factors. However, if we release ammonia gas
+slowly from a tank into a vacuum so that a well-collimated jet
+of gas is produced, we can separate the upper state molecules
+from the lower. In an electric field, there is a quadratic
+Stark effect, the levels \ldquo{}repelling\rdquo{} each other according to
+the well-known rule of second-order perturbation theory. Thus,
+the thermally excited upper-state molecules have their energy
+raised further by a strong field; and vice versa for the lower
+state molecules. If the field is inhomogeneous, the result is
+that upper-state molecules experience a force drawing them into
+regions of weak field; and lower-state molecules are deflected
+toward strong field regions. The effect is so large that, in a
+path length of about 15 cm, one can achieve an almost complete
+spatial separation. The upper-state molecules then pass through
+a small hole into a microwave cavity, where they give up their
+energy in the form of coherent radiation.
+
+
+Again, we have something very similar to a Maxwell Demon;
+for without performing any work (since no current flows to the
+electrodes producing the deflecting field) we have separated
+the high-energy molecules from the low-energy ones, and obtained
+useful work from the former. This, too, was held to be 
+impossible by some theorists before the experiment succeeded!
+
+Later in this course, when we have learned how to formulate
+a general theory of irreversible processes, we will see that the
+second law can be extended to a new principle that tells us which
+nonequilibrium states can be reached, reproducibly, from others;
+and this will of course have a direct bearing on the question of
+perpetual motion machines of the second kind. However, the full
+implications of this generalized second law have not yet been
+worked out; our understanding has advanced just to the point
+where confident, dogmatic statements on either side now seem
+imprudent. For the present, therefore, we leave it as an open
+question whether such machines can or cannot be made.
