Experimental study of mutual information in a Maxwell Demon
arXiv:1405.1272 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.030601
Abstract
We validate experimentally a fluctuation relation known as generalized Jarzynski equality (GJE) governing the work distribution in a feedback-controlled system. The feedback control is performed on a single electron box analogously to the original Szilard engine. In GJE, mutual information is treated on an equal footing with the thermodynamic work. Our results clarify the role of the mutual information in thermodynamics of irreversible processes.
