has shown that biological systems dispose of their excess entropy by the emission of photons each carrying about 3.6 k entropy units, k being Boltzmann's Constant. It is here proposed to apply this argument to inorganic as well as to organic nontransient irreversible processes, which proceed wholly

An exact solution is found for a model of N different, in general, hard convex bodies moving without rotation in independent cells of hard walls and fixed total volume. It is shown that the entropy of the system is maximal when the cell shapes are the same as the body shapes, and their volumes depen
