This is my master thesis in physics, created from October 2012 to October 2013, under supervision of Prof. Dr. Haye Hinrichsen at the University of Würzburg.

The general field is statistical physics, and the thesis in particular is concerned with how irreversible processes create, and possibly destroy, entropy in the environment.

The repository contains the generated PDF in its root directory as thesis.pdf; for manual compilation, run main.tex.

Since I kept joking that I didn’t touch any numbers greater than two in my thesis, I decided to count them (count-all-numbers script), so here’s the histogram of all numbers contained in my thesis.

• 0: 153
• 1: 211
• 2: 314
• 3: 46
• 4: 12
• 5: 8
• 7: 2
• 8: 3
• 10: 4
• 18: 1
• 19: 1
• 50: 1
• 56: 1
• 100: 1

So I am capable of using 3s after all. Cool!
