New research examines how gravity can be reconciled with thermodynamics through the Gravity from Entropy theory.

Making stuff cool and keeping it that way has been a pretty essential part of human civilization for thousands of years, with only in the past few hundred years man-made methods having become ...

Blinking dots Photoluminescence image of individual quantum dots used in the experiment. Under time-dependent driving, the system is driven out-of-equilibrium and their blinking trajectories are ...

In this video, we explore the relationship between information and entropy through James Clerk Maxwell's thought experiment, Maxwell's demon. This concept challenges the Second Law of Thermodynamics ...

In order to build the computers and devices of tomorrow, we have to understand how they use energy today. That's harder than it sounds. Memory storage, information processing, and energy use in these ...

Compressing hydrogen demands high pressures; liquefying it requires extreme cooling. Both approaches carry energy penalties, safety considerations, and infrastructure costs that limit wider adoption.

Abstract: As cloud services rapidly evolve and the demand for privacy protection grows, reversible data hiding in encrypted images (RDHEI) has gained significant attention. To enhance the data ...

A new study shows entanglement can be reversed—if you plug in a quantum battery. The finding rewrites the rules of the quantum world. Credit: Shutterstock Scientists have discovered a way to make ...

However, an equivalent to the second law of thermodynamics - which dictates that processes tend towards increasing disorder (the aforementioned entropy) and that perfect reversibility is an attainable ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

Reversible programs run backward as easily as they run forward, saving energy in theory. After decades of research, they may soon power AI. For Michael Frank, efficiency has always been a major ...
