Information driven current in a quantum Maxwell demon
, 2013 We describe a minimal model of a quantum Maxwell demon obeying Hamiltonian dynamics. The model is solved exactly, and we analyze its steady-state behavior.

Resilient Flow Regimes in the Rio Grande—Río Bravo Basin
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water is essential for human development and is an indispensable resource for economic activity and a country's growth. However, current water practices, along with increasing land‐use change, climate change, and agricultural practices, have significantly altered the hydrological cycle and water availability.

Identity Play: Middle School Youths' Provisional Self‐Making in Horizon‐Expanding STEM Spaces
Science Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study introduces identity play as an analytic construct for science education to explore improvisational dimensions of middle school students' STEM identity development in multiple out‐of‐school learning experiences focused on environmental problem‐solving.

A quantum Szilard engine without heat from a thermal reservoir
, 2017 We study a quantum Szilard engine that is not powered by heat drawn from a thermal reservoir, but rather by projective measurements. The engine is constituted of a system $\mathcal{S}$, a weight $\mathcal{W}$, and a Maxwell demon $\mathcal{D}$, and ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Most climate‐resilience health interventions are designed at the global level, with minimal attention to Indigenous communities' needs. The lack of consideration can lead to unintended harm and exacerbate health risks. This study aims to identify the capacities of Indigenous communities that can serve as transformative pathways in safely ...

Who Is the System? On the Externalisation and Depersonalisation of Responsibility for Abuse
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines the externalisation and depersonalisation of responsibility in the institutional communication of the Roman Catholic Church in the context of sexualised violence. Niklas Luhmann's theory of social systems is used to show how semantic constructions such as ‘systemic causes’ rhetorically blur responsibility and contribute ...

Combined monitoring, decision and control model for the human operator in a command and control desk [PDF]
, 1978 A report is given on the ongoing efforts to mode the human operator in the context of the task during the enroute/return phases in the ground based control of multiple flights of remotely piloted vehicles (RPV).

Modeling Maxwell's demon with a microcanonical Szilard engine
, 2011 Following recent work by Marathe and Parrondo [PRL, 104, 245704 (2010)], we construct a classical Hamiltonian system whose energy is reduced during the adiabatic cycling of external parameters, when initial conditions are sampled microcanonically ...

Crime, Gender and Policing: The Role of Women Officers in Addressing Gender‐Based Violence in India
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines whether an increased presence of women in Indian police forces results in enhanced justice for victims of gender‐based crimes and improves the overall effectiveness and responsiveness of the police. It employs focus group discussions and qualitative system dynamics modelling to examine the dynamics of women in law ...
