Checking the second law at cosmic scales
Narayan Banerjee, Purba Mukherjee, Diego Pav\'on

TL;DR
This paper argues that the second law of thermodynamics is valid at cosmic scales, supported by recent observational data on the universe's expansion history.
Contribution
It provides observational evidence confirming the second law's applicability at the largest observable scales in the universe.
Findings
Second law holds at cosmic scales
Recent Hubble data supports thermodynamic consistency
Aligns with previous theoretical studies
Abstract
Based on recent data about the history of the Hubble factor, it is argued that the second law of thermodynamics holds at the largest scales accessible to observation. This is consistent with previous studies of the same question.
