Under the right conditions, hot water can somehow freeze faster than cold water. It's called the Mpemba effect and we'll explain.

In a bid to test the principles of Maxwell's thought experiment, the researchers said their information engine achieves power 'comparable to molecular machinery.'

Researchers Design Very Fast Engine that Works Using Information Written by AZoMMay 12 2021 Scientists from Simon Fraser University (SFU) have developed an exceptionally quick engine that taps into a new type of fuel—information. Image Credit: MicroOne/Shutterstock.com The engine has been developed such that it transforms the random jiggling of a microscopic particle into stored energy. The study was published recently in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) and could result in considerable progress in the speed and cost of bio-nanotechnologies and computers....

 E-Mail Simon Fraser University researchers have designed a remarkably fast engine that taps into a new kind of fuel -- information. The development of this engine, which converts the random jiggling of a microscopic particle into stored energy, is outlined in research published this week in the SFU physics professor and senior author John Bechhoefer says researchers' understanding of how to rapidly and efficiently convert information into "work" may inform the design and creation of real-world information engines.?? "We wanted to find out how fast an information engine can go and how much ...
