Basic Nonequilibrium Physics with applications to biology and chemistry (book)

An online book consisting of linked preprint chapters, added and updated as they are available. The book covers the essentials of nonequilibrium science with a special focus on biochemical and biophysical applications. Learn how the cell runs on the nonequilibrium fuel ATP and the key role of molecular dynamics in clarifying nanoscale nonequilibrium phenomena generally. Learn how usable (free) energy stems from nonequilibrium conditions, and the connection to equilibrium. And more.

一部在线书籍，包含相互链接的预印本章节，随着内容陆续可用而逐步添加和更新。本书深入探讨非平衡科学的精髓，特别关注生化与生物物理学的应用。读者将了解到细胞如何利用非平衡燃料ATP进行运作，以及分子动力学在阐明纳米尺度非平衡现象中的关键作用。本书还将阐述可利用（自由）能量如何源自非平衡条件，及其与平衡状态的联系。此外，内容还包括更多丰富知识。
