1. Chemical Potential

   Linked via "amphiphilic systems"

   While typically defined for systems/) at thermal equilibrium, the concept of chemical potential is extended to local equilibrium descriptions in non-uniform or time-dependent systems/). In these scenarios, one speaks of a local chemical potential, $\mu(\mathbf{r}, t)$.
   A notable, if controversial, extension of this concept arises in the study of lipid bilayers-and [amphiphilic syste…
