Quantum Szilard Engine with Attractively Interacting Bosons [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2018 We show that a quantum Szilard engine containing many bosons with attractive interactions enhances the conversion between information and work. Using an ab initio approach to the full quantum-mechanical many-body problem, we find that the average work output increases significantly for a larger number of bosons. The highest overshoot occurs at a finite

Europhysics Letters, 1996 Szilard presented the first concrete embodyment of a Maxwell demon. We present a detailed kinematic analysis of his heat engine. We find that the phase space contains a branched manifold. After defining carefully the physical dynamics on such an object, we prove that the engine must operate at a loss.

Szilard engine reversibility as quantum gate function [PDF]
Proceedings of SPIE, 2012 A quantum gate is a logically and thermodynamically reversible situation that effects a unitary transformation of qubits of superimposed information, and essentially constitutes a situation for a reversible quantum decision. A quantum decision is a symmetry break, and the effect of the function of a Szilard engine is a symmetry break. A quantum gate

Variations on a demonic theme: Szilard’s other engines [PDF]
Chaos, 2020 Szilard’s now-famous single-molecule engine was only the first of three constructions he introduced in 1929 to resolve several challenges arising from Maxwell’s demon paradox. Given that it has been thoroughly analyzed, we analyze Szilard’s remaining two demon models.
