IFLScience on MSNA Quantum Demonic Engine Doesn’t Have To Violate Thermodynamics To WorkThe second law of thermodynamics underpins all of classical reality. It is the reason why it's easier to make things messy, why you can’t have perpetual motion, why you age, and maybe even why time ...

Interesting Engineering on MSNSacred laws of entropy also work in the quantum world, suggests studyNew research shows that the second law of thermodynamics, which states entropy increases over time, also applies to closed ...
For over a century, the Maxwell’s Demon paradox has haunted physics. This thought experiment suggests that a tiny, ...
Human activities continue to pump billions of tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere each year, raising global ...

The Brighterside of News on MSNResearchers shed new light on the link between quantum theory and thermodynamicsThe second law of thermodynamics, a cornerstone of modern physics, states that entropy—a measure of disorder—never spontaneously decreases. It governs everything from the efficiency of engines to the ...
Can quantum systems become more disordered, as thermodynamics would predict? Yes, they can - if a proper definition of "entropy" is used. It is one of the most important laws of nature that we know: ...
In a groundbreaking discovery, researchers from Nagoya University in Japan and the Slovak Academy of Sciences have unveiled ...
