Just learnt about an interesting article by a friend. Find cool stuff addressing the Maxwell’s demon, Zilard engine, Landauer’s principle and their experimental realizations in Physics Today. You’ll also find out more fascinating stuff: information values that are tightly connected to entropy and energy; what I call ‘inforogy’!

I hope I can someday learn all about the Maxwell’s demon 🙂

Here is another submission on the subject: Information gain and loss for a quantum Maxwell’s demon.

I’m interested in the `history’ of the Maxwell demon. I’m not sure if I can understand the current work; yet I liked that it is  “dedicated to the memory of Marian Smoluchowski, the most successful Maxwell demon exorcist in the 100 anniversary of his death”.
