Primes

• Irreversibility
  • Bennett's framework

    This sourceResolves Maxwell demon paradox through Landauer's principle; shows erasure of measurement information dissipates required entropy; demonstrates reversible computation is possible if information is preserved; reconciles information theory with thermodynamic second law.

• Second Law of Thermodynamics
  • tied the demon's measurement to entropy production, and Bennett's work
