21. For more on this see thermal equilibrium . 22. So, you can have far from thermal equilibrium conditions which will be effectively frozen. 23. The working material is the refrigerant, and starts in thermal equilibrium with the refrigerated environment. 24. In this case, the distribution function is " plasmas are rarely in thermal equilibrium . 25. The glass often experiences poor thermal conduction, taking a long time to reach thermal equilibrium . 26. This sounds like a complete load to me, because I know what thermal equilibrium is. 27. One cannot assume that under all conditions the yield of strange quarks is in thermal equilibrium . 28. Hence the number of atoms in these two states will be approximately equal at thermal equilibrium . 29. :Yes, provided there rate of nuclear reactions are fast enough to maintain thermal equilibrium . 30. The entropy of an isolated system in thermal equilibrium containing an amount of energy of E is:
