Abstract: | It is shown that under rather general conditions two K.M.S. states 1 and 2 of systemsS
1 andS
2, respectively, can be simultaneously extended to a K.M.S. state of a system composed ofS
1 andS
2, provided both systems have equal temperatures. This result gives further support to the conjecture that K.M.S. states are equilibrium states. In the second part, a model of thermal coupling is constructed which satisfies the assumptions of the first part, thereby showing that the result is also valid in the interesting case of systemsS
1 andS
2 in thermal contact. |
