Dublin, Ireland (SPX) Oct 19, 2020

Researchers from Trinity College Dublin have discovered a uniquely quantum effect in erasing information that may have significant implications for the design of quantum computing chips. Their surprising discovery brings back to life the paradoxical "Maxwell's demon", which has tormented physicists for over 150 years. The thermodynamics of computation was brought to the fore in 1961 when R
