Hunting for Maxwell's Demon in the Wild
Johan du Buisson, Jannik Ehrich, Matthew P. Leighton +4
The paradox of Maxwell's demon motivated the development of information thermodynamics and the creation of nanoscale information engines. We now understand that machines such as th…
Information Arbitrage in Bipartite Heat Engines
Matthew P. Leighton, Jannik Ehrich, David A. Sivak
Heat engines and information engines have each historically served as motivating examples for the development of thermodynamics. While these two types of systems are typically thou…
Unlocking the potential of information flow: Maximizing free-energy transduction in a model of an autonomous rotary molecular motor
Mathis Grelier, David A. Sivak, Jannik Ehrich
Molecular motors fulfill critical functions within all living beings. Understanding their underlying working principles is therefore of great interest. Here we develop a simple mod…
Energy and information flows in autonomous systems
Jannik Ehrich, David A. Sivak
Multi-component molecular machines are ubiquitous in biology. We review recent progress on describing their thermodynamic properties using autonomous bipartite Markovian dynamics.…
Information engine in a nonequilibrium bath
Tushar K. Saha, Jannik Ehrich, Momčilo Gavrilov +3
Information engines can convert thermal fluctuations of a bath at temperature into work at rates of order per relaxation time of the system. We show experimenta…
Energetic cost of feedback control
Jannik Ehrich, Susanne Still, David A. Sivak
Successful feedback control of small systems allows for the rectification of thermal fluctuations, converting them into useful energy; however, control itself requires work. This p…
