The state function entropy and its quantum thermodynamical implication for two typical dissipative systems with anomalous spectral densities are studied by investigating on their low-temperature quantum behavior. In all cases, it is found that the entropy decays quickly and vanishes as the temperature approaches zero. This reveals a good conformity with the third law of thermodynamics and provides another evidence for the validity of fundamental thermodynamical laws in the quantum dissipative region.

The Absolute

The Third Law was introduced in Chapter 9; this chapter develops the Third Law more fully, introducing absolute entropies, and examining how adiabatic demagnetisation can be used to approach the absolute zero of temperature.
