Why Reading a Quantum Clock Burns a Billion Times More Energy
What if the most difficult part of keeping time wasn’t running the clock, but rather simply reading it? That counterintuitive ...
By Partha Sinha Kali is not a goddess carved in stone. She is the logic of decay wearing a garland of skulls. She is entropy, disguised as divinity. Where others promise salvation through order, ...
How are controversial ideas handled by modern science? A common charge leveled against science (generally by those who are unhappy with its conclusions) is that the only way to get funding or continue ...
In 1961 Rolf Landauer linked information and thermodynamic entropy by showing that erasing or combining bits of memory must be accompanied by an increase in entropy. For the first time since then, a ...
Discover how reading a quantum clock can surprisingly cost more energy than keeping it ticking, impacting timekeeping and ...
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6, 2023 – Though a cornerstone of thermodynamics, entropy remains one of the most vexing concepts to teach budding physicists in the classroom. As a result, many people oversimplify ...
