| contents | We show how the macroscopic state variables pressure, entropy and temperature of equilibrium thermodynamics can be consistently derived from the (quantum) chaotic spectral structure of one or two particles in two-dimensional domains. This provides a definition of work and heat from first principles, a microscopic underpinning of the first and second law of thermodynamics, and a transparent illustration of the ``eigenstate thermalization hypothesis''. |
