The earth spirals round the sun in an ever‑decreasing orbit. It would be absurd to treat its changing revolution as a constant unit of time. The cosmic being will naturally relate his units of length and time so that the velocity of light remains constant. Our years will then decrease in geometrical progression in the cosmic scale of time. On that scale man's life is becoming briefer; his threescore years and ten are an ever‑decreasing allowance. Owing to the property of geometrical progressions an infinite number of our years will add up to a finite cosmic time; so that what we should call the end of eternity is an ordinary finite date in the cosmic calendar. But on that date the universe has expanded to infinity in our reckoning, and we have shrunk to nothing in the reckoning of the cosmic being.</p> − − The idea of heat death stems from the second law of thermodynamics, of which one version states that entropy tends to increase in an isolated system.

The three of them were said to have exchanged ideas on this subject. In 1862, Thomson published "On the age of the Sun's heat", an article in which he reiterated his fundamental beliefs in the indestructibility of energy (the first law) and the universal dissipation of energy (the second law), leading to diffusion of heat, cessation of useful motion (work), and exhaustion of potential energy through the material universe, while clarifying his view of the consequences for the universe as a whole.

More recently, Walter Grandy writes: "It is rather presumptuous to speak of the entropy of a universe about which we still understand so little, and we wonder how one might define thermodynamic entropy for a universe and its major constituents that have never been in equilibrium in their entire existence." According to Tisza: "If an isolated system is not in equilibrium, we cannot associate an entropy with it." Buchdahl writes of "the entirely unjustifiable assumption that the universe can be treated as a closed thermodynamic system". According to Gallavotti: "... there is no universally accepted notion of entropy for systems out of equilibrium, even when in a stationary state." Discussing the question of entropy for non-equilibrium states in general, Lieb and Yngvason express their opinion as follows: "Despite the fact that most physicists believe in such a nonequilibrium entropy, it has so far proved impossible to define it in a clearly satisfactory way." In Landsberg's opinion: "The third misconception is that thermodynamics, and in particular, the concept of entropy, can without further enquiry be applied to the whole universe. ... These questions have a certain fascination, but the answers are speculations, and lie beyond the scope of this book." − 马克斯 · 普朗克写道，“宇宙的熵”这个短语没有任何意义，因为它不承认有准确的定义。最近，Walter Grandy 写道: “我们仍然对宇宙的熵知之甚少，我们想知道如何定义一个宇宙及其主要成分的熵，而这些成分在整个存在过程中从未处于平衡状态。”蒂萨说: “如果一个孤立的系统不处于平衡状态，我们就不能把熵和它联系起来。”布赫达尔写道: “宇宙可以被视为一个封闭的热力学系统，这是完全不合理的假设。”。根据 Gallavotti 的说法: “对于失去平衡的系统，没有普遍接受的熵的概念，即使是在定态中。”在讨论一般非平衡态的熵问题时，Lieb 和 Yngvason 表达了他们的观点如下: “尽管大多数物理学家相信存在这样的非平衡熵，但迄今为止已经证明不可能以一种明显令人满意的方式来定义它。”兰兹伯格认为: “第三个误解是，热力学，特别是熵的概念，不需要进一步探究就可以应用于整个宇宙。...这些问题有一定的吸引力，但答案都是推测，超出了本书的范围。”+ + − ===History===+ − A 2010 analysis of entropy states, "The entropy of a general gravitational field is still not known", and "gravitational entropy is difficult to quantify".

Lee Smolin goes further: "It has long been known that gravity is important for keeping the universe out of thermal equilibrium. Gravitationally bound systems have negative specific heat—that is, the velocities of their components increase when energy is removed. ...

==Origins of the idea==
热寂的概念来源于热力学第二定律，其中一种说法认为，在一个孤立的系统中，熵有增加的趋势。由此，该假说暗示，如果宇宙持续足够长的时间，它将渐进地接近所有能量都均匀分布的状态。换句话说，根据这一假设，自然界中存在着机械能（运动）耗散（能量转化）为热能的趋势。因此，通过推断就有了这样一种观点，即随着时间的推移，宇宙的机械运动会因为第二定律的作用而转化为热能然后耗尽。
<blockquote>The result would inevitably be a state of universal rest and death, if the universe were finite and left to obey existing laws. But it is impossible to conceive a limit to the extent of matter in the universe; and therefore science points rather to an endless progress, through an endless space, of action involving the transformation of potential energy into palpable motion and hence into heat, than to a single finite mechanism, running down like a clock, and stopping for ever.</blockquote>

“宇宙中的所有物体都会冷却，最终变得太冷而无法支持生命”，这一猜想似乎是由法国天文学家让-西尔万-贝利于1777年在其关于天文学历史的著作中以及随后与伏尔泰的通信中首次提出的。在贝利看来，所有行星都有内部热量，现在正处于某种特定的冷却阶段。例如，木星仍然太热，在数千年内都不会出现生命，而月球已经太冷了。在这一观点中，最终状态被描述为一种 "平衡 "状态，在这种平衡中，所有的运动都停止了。<ref>

然而，热寂作为热力学定律的后果的想法最早是在1851年由开尔文勋爵(William Thomson)以宽松的术语提出的，他进一步把萨迪 · 卡诺(1824年)、詹姆斯 · 朱尔(1843年)和鲁道夫 · 克劳修斯(1850年)的机械能损失观点进行理论化。在接下来的十年里，赫尔曼·冯·亥姆霍兹和威廉 · 兰金详细阐述了汤姆森的观点。
马克斯·普朗克写道，"宇宙的熵 "这个短语没有任何意义，因为它无法有准确的定义。最近，沃尔特·格兰迪写道："谈论一个我们仍然了解甚少的宇宙的熵是相当冒昧的，我们想知道，对于一个在整个存在过程中从未处于平衡状态的宇宙及其主要成分，人们如何定义热力学熵。"根据蒂萨的说法 "如果一个孤立的系统不处于平衡状态，我们就不能把熵与它联系起来"。布赫达尔写道："‘宇宙可以被视为一个封闭的热力学系统’，这是一个完全不合理的假设。"根据加拉沃蒂的说法："......对于失去平衡的系统，即使在静止状态下，也没有普遍接受的熵的概念。"在讨论一般的非平衡状态的熵问题时，Lieb和Yngvason表达了他们的观点如下："尽管大多数物理学家相信有这样一个非平衡熵，但到目前为止，已经证明不可能以一种明显令人满意的方式来定义它。”在兰茨伯格看来 "第三个误解是，热力学，特别是熵的概念，不需要进一步探究就可以适用于整个宇宙。...... 这些问题有一定的吸引力，但答案都是猜测，并且超出了本书的范围"。

2010年对熵状态的一份分析表明，"一般引力场的熵仍不为人所知"，"引力熵很难量化"。该分析考虑了估算所需的几种可能的假设，并且表明可观测宇宙的熵比之前想象的要多。这是因为分析的结论是：超大质量黑洞是最大的贡献者。李 · 斯莫林更进一步说："人们早就知道，引力对于防止宇宙进入热平衡非常重要。引力束缚系统具有负的比热——也就是说，当能量消失时，其组分的速度会增加。...... 这样的系统不会演化到均匀的平衡状态。相反，随着它被分割成子系统，它会变得越来越结构化和异质化。
宇宙热寂的概念来源于对前两个热力学定律在宇宙过程中的应用的讨论。特别是在1851年，开尔文勋爵根据最近关于热的动力学理论的实验，概述了这一观点："热不是一种物质，而是机械效应的一种动力学形式，我们察觉到机械功和热之间必然存在等价关系，就像原因和结果之间一样"。<ref>Thomson, Sir William. (1851).

最近在一个相对简单的封闭系统中的非平衡稳态的实验发现，也支持了这一观点。 可以预期的是，一个被分割成子系统的孤立系统不一定能达到热力学平衡并保持在非平衡稳态。熵将从一个子系统传递到另一个子系统，但其产生量将为零，这与热力学第二定律并不矛盾。

1852年，汤姆森出版了《论自然界中机械能耗散的普遍趋势》，其中他概述了热力学第二定律的基本内容，并总结出“机械运动和用于创造该运动的能量将自然趋于耗散或耗尽”的观点<ref>Thomson, Sir William (1852).

[This version from ''Mathematical and Physical Papers'', vol. i, art. 59, pp. 511.]</ref>。这篇论文中的观点，就其应用于太阳的年龄和宇宙运行动力学而言，吸引了威廉·兰肯和赫尔曼·冯·亥姆霍兹等人。据说他们三人就这个问题交换了意见<ref name="Energy and Empire">

1862年，汤姆森发表了《论太阳热的年龄》一文，他在文中重申了他对能量不灭（第一定律）和能量普遍耗散（第二定律）的基本信念，还有热量扩散、有用运动(功)的停止，以及通过物质宇宙产生的势能耗尽，同时阐明了他对整个宇宙后果的看法。汤姆森写道:
<blockquote>如果宇宙是有限的，并且遵循现有的法则，那么结果将不可避免地宇宙的休息和死亡的状态。但是，我们不可能设想宇宙中的物质范围有一个极限；因此，科学指向的是一个无尽的进展，通过一个无尽的空间，将势能转化为可感知的运动，今儿转化为热的，而不是一个单一的有限的机制，像时钟一样慢下来，并永远停止<ref>
<blockquote>The result would inevitably be a state of universal rest and death, if the universe were finite and left to obey existing laws. But it is impossible to conceive a limit to the extent of matter in the universe; and therefore science points rather to an endless progress, through an endless space, of action involving the transformation of [[potential energy]] into [[Work (physics)|palpable motion]] and hence into [[heat]], than to a single finite mechanism, running down like a clock, and stopping for ever.<ref>

在汤姆森1852年和1862年的论文之后的几年里，亥姆霍兹和兰肯都把这个想法归功于汤姆森。但通过发表观点进一步解读他的论文，他们指出汤姆森认为：宇宙将在 "热寂"（亥姆霍兹）中结束，而这将是 "所有物理现象的结束"。（兰肯）<ref name="Energy and Empire" />
