Landauer’s Principle in a Quantum Szilard Engine without Maxwell’s Demon [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 Quantum Szilard engine constitutes an adequate interplay of thermodynamics, information theory and quantum mechanics. Szilard engines are in general operated by a Maxwell’s Demon where Landauer’s principle resolves the apparent paradoxes ...

Information Thermodynamics of the Cell Signal Transduction as a Szilard Engine [PDF]
Entropy, 2018 A cell signaling system is in a non-equilibrium state, and it includes multistep biochemical signaling cascades (BSCs), which involve phosphorylation of signaling molecules, such as mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways.

Influence of the seed of measurement on the work extracted in a quantum Szilard engine [PDF]
iScience, 2023 Summary: We investigate the influence of the seed of measurement on the performance of a Szilard engine based on a two-mode Gaussian state evolving in a noisy channel.

Quantum Szilard engine for the fractional power-law potentials [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 In this study, we consider the quantum Szilárd engine with a single particle under the fractional power-law potential. We suggest that such kind of the Szilárd engine works a Stirling-like cycle.

Electrical Maxwell demon and Szilard engine utilizing Johnson noise, measurement, logic and control. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 We introduce a purely electrical version of Maxwell's demon which does not involve mechanically moving parts such as trapdoors, etc. It consists of a capacitor, resistors, amplifiers, logic circuitry and electronically controlled switches and uses ...

On the Precise Link between Energy and Information [PDF]
EntropyWe present a modified version of the Szilard engine, demonstrating that an explicit measurement procedure is entirely unnecessary for its operation. By considering our modified engine, we are able to provide a new interpretation of Landauer’s original ...

One-particle engine with a porous piston [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 We propose a variation of the classical Szilard engine that uses a porous piston. Such an engine requires neither information about the position of the particle, nor the removal and subsequent insertion of the piston when resetting the engine to continue

Extractable quantum work from a two-mode Gaussian state in a noisy channel [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 We study a Szilard engine based on a Gaussian state of a system consisting of two bosonic modes placed in a noisy channel. As the initial state of the system is taken an entangled squeezed thermal state, and the quantum work is extracted by performing a ...

Informational Reinterpretation of the Mechanics Notions and Laws [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 The informational re-interpretation of the basic laws of the mechanics exploiting the Landauer principle is suggested. When a physical body is in rest or it moves rectilinearly with the constant speed, zero information is transferred; thus, the ...
