Israel's boundary condition plays an important role in our calculations in both cases, besides the first law of thermodynamics and Bekenstein's area-entropy formula. The results indicate that thermodynamics on the brane world knows the behaviors of gravity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2007-05-14T13:00:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "04.50.+h", "98.80.-k" ], "keywords": [ "first law", "braneworld cosmology", "friedmann-like equations", "thermodynamics", "bekensteins area-entropy formula" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 747439 } } }
