For now, this technical skirting of the Second Law of Thermodynamics is only theoretical. However, the authors note that this idea could be tested using modern superconducting circuits.

OXFORD — When Sheldon Timothy Herrington Jr. goes on trial for capital murder in connection with the 2022 killing of a recent Ole Miss graduate, it will not be in Lafayette County.

Second, he said, there might be “an arrow in time that describes this increasing complexity,” similar to the way the second law of thermodynamics, which describes the increase in entropy, is ...

The second law of thermodynamics inspires this retirement rule, because “You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” ...

A Quantum Demonic Engine Doesn’t Have To Violate Thermodynamics To Work The second law of thermodynamics truly appears to be universal.

The team demonstrated that while quantum theory does not inherently forbid violations of the second law of thermodynamics, quantum processes may be implemented without actually breaching the law.

A microscopic version of a diving board has been driven to cheat the second law of thermodynamics 95 per cent of the time. The finding doesn’t challenge the validity of the law, but underscores ...

The second law of thermodynamics underlies nearly everything. But is it inviolable? Two centuries on, scientists are still searching for a proof of its universal validity ...

It is based on the second law of thermodynamics, which establishes that entropy—a measure of disorder in an isolated system—can only increase or stay the same.
