I think that capo3433‘s Boltzmann equation tattoo is the geekiest tattoo I’ve posted in quite a long time (I’m assuming he understands it, but he says he’s not very good at math!). It’s done by Kimsu at Body Graphics in NJ. If you’re wondering, s = k log w is a measure of entropy in this case.
BME/News and Modblog highlight only a small fraction of what
I think that’s the best tattoo I’ve ever seen…
He should totally ∆G = ∆Gº+ RTlnQ somewhere too. That would be kickass.
if i remember, the modernized version is actually s=k lnw, but they didn’t have the natural logarithm when boltzmann figured this equation…still funny though
My friend has a tattoo of the equation that will plot a heart on a graph (and the graph with said heart as well) It’s wonderful.
Yup:
S=kBlnΩ
I love the tattoo! Though physics is not the best subject of mine…my GPA will reflect that.
Dig it! You know, Boltzmann had this equation carved into his tombstone.
Cool idea, but it looks like the tattoo was either poorly executed or isn’t being cared for very well. Very scabby and dry.
I really don’t need any reminders about my math final tomorrow 🙁
Entropy is depressing.
My friend Tony had the chemical structures (hes still explaining it to me) of pain on one arm and pleasure on the other – its soo cool.
But feeling really geeky, doesn’t entalpy have an H in it?
shining_down, yes, E-N-T-H-A-L-P-Y. But we’re talking about entropy. 🙂
Yes, entropy is depressing. My boyfreind was just explaining it to me yesterday.. It looks like the tattoo is flaking to me?
is it jus me or is every1 tht posted on here a bunch a math nerds >.> and btw EW hair stomach much? >.
I think he was going for the exact form that Boltzmann has on his grave

considering that, I have to give the man props for being historically accurate
