| contents | We develop a thermodynamic framework that couples mass dynamics, described by the Newton- Gibbs-van der Waals formalism, with electromagnetic fields beyond the scope of classical Maxwell theory. Classical Newtonian mechanics does not capture density evolution in the momentum balance, while the standard Maxwell equations neglect the contribution of the curl component of the electric field associated with moving charges. Building on an alternative understanding on entropy, we develop a generalized theory for electrodynamics governed by entropy-production constraints. The resulting framework yields a modified Maxwell stress tensor that incorporates the moving-charge contribution, leading to intrinsic parity asymmetry in electromagnetic forces. The theory naturally reproduces key features of superconductivity, including the Meissner effect, and reduces to the conventional Maxwell-Faraday and Maxwell-Ampere equations in an appropriate limit. This entropic formulation provides a unified thermodynamic basis for mass-field coupling and reveals new physical consequences arising from motion-induced electromagnetic effects. |
