Many boson quantum Szilard engine for fractional power law potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
In this article, we have realized the quantum Szilard engine (QZE) for non-interacting bosons. We have adopted the Bose-Einstein statistics for this purpose. We have considered fractional power law potential for this purpose and have used the artifact of

Conditioning, Correlation and Entropy Generation in Maxwell’s Demon

open access: yesEntropy, 2013
Maxwell’s Demon conspires to use information about the state of a confined molecule in a Szilard engine (randomly frozen into a state subspace by his own actions) to derive work from a single-temperature heat bath.

Automated Tuberculosis Detection in Chest Radiographs: A Hybrid Deep Learning Framework for Clinical Decision Support

open access: yesApplied AI Letters, Volume 7, Issue 2, June 2026.
A hybrid deep learning framework integrating VGG16, ResNet50, and DenseNet121 is proposed for automated tuberculosis detection from chest X‐ray images. Feature‐level fusion enhances robustness and generalization, achieving 97.4% accuracy across multiple public datasets, supporting reliable clinical decision‐making in resource‐limited healthcare ...

Role of measurement-feedback separation in autonomous Maxwell's demons

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
We introduce an information heat engine that is autonomous (i.e., without any time-dependent parameter) but has separated measurement and feedback processes.

Early use of the reinforced concrete in the architecture of the Historicism in Austria–Hungary

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 2857-2868, June 2026.
Abstract The study examines the early incorporation of reinforced concrete in the architecture of Historicism in Austria–Hungary. Spanning the late 19th to early 20th centuries, the research illuminates the period's stylistic pluralism and the transformative impact of reinforced concrete.

Composite Particles and the Szilard Engine

open access: yes, 2013
The Szilard engine is the simplest possible engine, composed only of one or more particles in a box. The box is then immersed in a heat bath and partitioned into two parts by a wall. It is known that in the cold temperature limit, one may extract more work out of elementary boson than out of elementary fermions. In this paper, we consider the amount of

Molecular Ratchets and Kinetic Asymmetry: Giving Chemistry Direction

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 136, Issue 23, June 3, 2024.
Ratcheting is the mechanism by which stochastic molecular dynamics, and other random exchange processes in chemistry, can be directionally biased and driven away from equilibrium. In this Review we discuss the recognition, invention and development of molecular ratchets and kinetic asymmetry, which underpins it.

Mathematical Modelling and Intuition in Microbiology: A Perspective

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
Mathematical modelling in microbiology converts verbal reasoning into internally consistent hypotheses that can provide testable predictions, infer hidden parameters, and generate transferable intuition. By selecting an appropriate level of description, researchers can connect data to explanatory principles.

Quantum Carnot Bound from Petz Recovery Maps

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2026.
A quantum bound (ηP$\eta_P$, the Petz Limit) is derived for the efficiency (η$\eta$) of a heat engine utilizing two‐level quantum systems (qubits) as the working substance. This limit, based on Petz recovery maps, is stricter than the classical Carnot limit (ηC$\eta_C$) for irreversible cycles.
