Loschmidt's paradox is a thought experiment associated with the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the total entropy of an isolated system can only increase over time. The paradox is named after the Austrian physicist Johann Georg Loschmidt, who raised a significant question regarding the nature of molecular motion and the irreversibility of thermodynamic processes. The core of Loschmidt's paradox lies in the behavior of microscopic particles governed by classical mechanics.
