Maxwell’s demon wields its own magic without any quantum exorcism, study hints
A team of researchers at Japan’s Nagoya University has developed a mathematical model that shows that quantum theory can ...
A 155-year-old thought experiment, long thought to break the laws of thermodynamics, could be made real on a large scale. Maxwell’s demon is a thought experiment first proposed by Scottish ...
A chemical pump based on a 19th-century thought experiment involving an invisible “demon” could be used to help separate chemicals in drug manufacturing. Maxwell’s demon, first proposed by physicist ...
In a new study published in Physical Review Letters, scientists have discovered a novel approach to detecting the quantum properties of a system by simply using heat as a witness, requiring no direct ...
