title: Dynamics of mammalian thermoregulation and its circadian component.
abstract: This note attempts to focus a physical theory for the dynamics of mammalian thermoregulation, its relation to thermodynamic near-equilibrium, and its relation to a circadian component of that regulation. As such, it is an extension of the analysis and discussion carried on in earlier references. That earlier analysis is tested and extended by the use of two additional data sets not found in the earlier work.
