abstract

If we assume that the source of thermodynamic system, $\rho$ and $p$, are also the source of gravity, thermal quantities, such as entropy, temperature, and chemical potential, can induce effects of gravity, or gravity can induce thermal effects. We find only for systems with constant temperature and zero chemical potential, gravity can be seen as an entropic force. The case for Newtonian approximation is discussed.

Quadratic-gravity terms are claimed to shift the thermodynamic phase structure of the FLRW apparent horizon, but the printed critical-radius formula does not follow from the paper's own equation of state.
