Autonomous Temporal Probability Concentration: Clockworks and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
Emanuel Schwarzhans, Maximilian P. E. Lock, Paul Erker +2
According to thermodynamics, the inevitable increase of entropy allows the past to be distinguished from the future. From this perspective, any clock must incorporate an irreversib…
Measuring the thermodynamic cost of timekeeping
A. N. Pearson, Y. Guryanova, P. Erker +4
All clocks, in some form or another, use the evolution of nature towards higher entropy states to quantify the passage of time. Due to the statistical nature of the second law and…
Efficient generation of high-dimensional entanglement through multi-path downconversion
Xiao-Min Hu, Wen-Bo Xing, Bi-Heng Liu +5
High-dimensional entanglement promises to greatly enhance the performance of quantum communication and enable quantum advantages unreachable by qubit entanglement. One of the great…
