connectionbetween adiabatic reaction forces with entropic forces, and the relevance for gravity

Another example of an emergent adiabatic force is the reaction force of a fast system

when it is inuenced by a slowly varying system. In the Born-Oppenheimer approximation

this force can be obtained by requiring that the phase space volume of all states with

energies below the given state remains constant. This leads to exactly a similar expression

as the entropic force in a thermodynamic situation. In this paper we will merge this

concept with that of an entropic force. A more detailed explanation of the connection

between adiabatic reaction forces with entropic forces, and the relevance for gravity, will

be explained in a future publication
