A Concise Introduction of the Extropy

Veronika Poór ; Chemical Institution, Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest

Abstract

The Clausian introduction of entropy is based on an unnecessary restriction, namely that diminishing circle integral leads to a unique state variable. Eliminating that restriction a family of entropy-like function is introduced. After we have chosen one, called extropy, which has better properties as the well known entropy.
