A new study proposes a radically simple and efficient way of calculating the complex physical quantity known as entropy -- and it probably exists on your own computer. Entropy, a measure of the ...

The clock the team used to demonstrate this principle consists of a pair of quantum dots coupled by a thin tunnelling barrier. In this double quantum dot system, a “tick” occurs whenever an electron ...

Entropy, a measure of the molecular disorder or randomness of a system, is critical to understanding a system's physical composition. In complex physical systems, the interaction of internal elements ...
