Erasure of a nonequilibrium memory beyond Landauer's bound using levitated optomechanics with spatio-temporal optical control

Physical Review Research
Landauer’s principle provides a deep connection between information processing and thermodynamics by setting a lower limit on the energy consumption and heat production of logically irreversible transformations.

A Business Strategy or Compliance? Review of the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Landscape

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors have gained significant prominence within the corporate landscape, becoming essential to the sustainability and success of modern business models. Companies are increasingly required to integrate sustainable and responsible practices into their daily operations to meet stakeholder expectations

Evidence for Dark Energy Driven by Star Formation: Information Dark Energy?

Entropy
Evidence is presented for dark energy resulting directly from star formation. A survey of stellar mass density measurements, SMD(a), as a function of universe scale size a, was found to be described by a simple CPL w0 − wa parameterisation that was in ...

Quantum amplification, relic gravitons, and Landauer’s conjecture

According to the microscopic formulation of Landauer’s principle, when information is deleted, the von Neumann entropy of the system gets reduced with a corresponding energy cost.

Integrating ESG Into Business Strategy: Evidence on Firm Performance From European High‐Materiality Industries

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into corporate business strategy has become progressively important, particularly for firms operating in high‐materiality industries where nonfinancial risks are more pronounced. This study examines the association between ESG performance and firm performance among European

Silica‐Supported Mononuclear Methyl‐Platinum Complexes Stabilized by Trimethylphosphine—Synthesis, Structure, and Reactions Under Reducing Conditions

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The article describes the synthesis and molecular transformations of a silica‐supported bis(phosphine)methylplatinum(II) complex under reactive (H2, CO) and inert gas atmospheres. The focus lies on the stabilizing effect of the sterically non‐demanding trimethylphosphine ligand, which alters the reactivity of the surface sites, compared to other ...

Optical Multiphase Conductivity Inline Probe: Characterization and Analysis of Foam Structures

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
A novel inline probe combines optical imaging and electrical conductivity within a shared measurement volume, enabling simultaneous determination of foam structure and composition. The method provides real‐time access to cell size distributions and liquid fractions under process conditions. ABSTRACT For inline process analysis of foams, a novel optical

The principle of legal certainty as a principle of economic efficiency

, 2014
Legal certainty, a feature of the rule of law, constitutes a requirement for the operational necessities of market interactions. But, the compatibility of the principle of legal certainty with ideals such as liberalism and free market economy must not ...
