Critique of Loos’s Anti-Ornament Through Lucretius and Adorno by Levent Şentürk

“…(In the twentieth century, though, we are now aware of the divisibility of atoms and the existence of subatomic particles.) After including these passages, I will try to take a closer look at Adorno’s text, in which he sarcastically states that, the effort to purify has turned into a style itself. …”

Advancing Shannon Entropy for Measuring Diversity in Systems by R. Rajaram, B. Castellani, A. N. Wilson

“…We illustrate the utility of our approach by renormalizing and comparing three well-known energy distributions in physics, namely, the Maxwell-Boltzmann, Bose-Einstein, and Fermi-Dirac distributions for energy of subatomic particles. The comparison shows that Cc is a vast improvement over H as it provides a scale-free comparison of these diversity distributions and also allows for a comparison between parts of these diversity distributions.…”
