Time’s Arrow for Shockwaves ; Bit-Reversible Lyapunov and “Covariant” Vectors ; Symmetry Breaking
Strong shockwaves generate entropy quickly and locally. The Newton-Hamilton equations of motion, which underly the dynamics, are perfectly time-reversible. How do they generate the irreversible shock entropy? What are the symptoms of this irreversibility? We investigate these questions using Leve ...
