  The thorny thought experiment has been turned into a real experiment —
  one that physicists use to probe the physics of
  information.Illustration by Samuel Velasco / Quanta Magazine

  The universe bets on disorder. Imagine, for example, dropping a
  thimbleful of red dye into a swimming pool. All of those dye molecules
  are going to slowly spread throughout the water.

  Physicists quantify this tendency to spread by counting the number of
  possible ways the dye molecules can be arranged. There’s one possible
  state where the molecules are crowded into the thimble. There’s another
  where, say, the molecules settle in a tidy clump at the pool’s bottom.
  But there are uncountable billions of permutations where the molecules
  spread out in different ways throughout the water. If the universe
  chooses from all the possible states at random, you can bet that it’s
  going to end up with one of the vast set of disordered possibilities.

  Seen in this way, the inexorable rise in entropy, or disorder, as
  quantified by the second law of thermodynamics, takes on an almost
  mathematical certainty. So of course physicists are constantly trying
  to break it.

  One almost did. A thought experiment devised by the Scottish physicist
  James Clerk Maxwell in 1867 [67]stumped scientists for 115 years. And
  even after a solution was found, physicists have continued to use
  “Maxwell’s demon” to push the laws of the universe to their limits.

  In the thought experiment, Maxwell imagined splitting a room full of
  gas into two compartments by erecting a wall with a small door. Like
  all gases, this one is made of individual particles. The average speed
  of the particles corresponds to the temperature of the gas—faster is
  hotter. But at any given time, some particles will be moving more
  slowly than others.

  What if, suggested Maxwell, a tiny imaginary creature—a demon, as it
  was later [68]called—sat at the door. Every time it saw a fast-moving
  particle approaching from the left-hand side, it opened the door and
  let it into the right-hand compartment. And every time a slow-moving
  particle approached from the right, the demon let it into the left-hand
  compartment.

  After a while, the left-hand compartment would be full of slow, cold
  particles, and the right-hand compartment would grow hot. This isolated
  system would seem to grow more orderly, not less, because two
  distinguishable compartments have more order than two identical
  compartments. Maxwell had created a system that appeared to defy the
  rise of entropy, and thus the laws of the universe.

  “He tried to prove a system where the entropy would decrease,”
  said [69]Laia Delgado Callico, a physicist at King’s College London.
  “It’s a paradox.”

  Two advances would be crucial to solving Maxwell’s demon. The first was
  by the American mathematician Claude Shannon, regarded as the
  [70]founder of information theory. In 1948, Shannon showed that the
  information content of a message could be quantified with what he
  called the information entropy. “In the 19th century, no one knew about
  information,” said [71]Takahiro Sagawa, a physicist at the University
  of Tokyo. “The modern understanding of Maxwell’s demon was established
  by Shannon’s work.”

  The second vital piece of the puzzle was the principle of erasure. In
  1961, the German American physicist Rolf Landauer showed that any
  logically irreversible computation, such as the erasing of information
  from a memory, would result in a minimal nonzero amount of work
  converted into heat dumped into the environment, and a corresponding
  rise in entropy. Landauer’s erasure principle provided a tantalizing
  link between information and thermodynamics. “Information is physical,”
  he later [72]proclaimed.

  In 1982, the American physicist Charles Bennett put the pieces of the
  puzzle [73]together. He realized that Maxwell’s demon was at core an
  information-processing machine: It needed to record and store
  information about individual particles in order to decide when to open
  and close the door. Periodically it would need to erase this
  information. According to Landauer’s erasure principle, the rise in
  entropy from the erasure would more than compensate for the decrease in
  entropy caused by the sorting of the particles. “You need to pay,”
  said [74]Gonzalo Manzano, a physicist at the Institute for Quantum
  Optics and Quantum Information in Vienna. The demon’s need to make room
  for more information inexorably led to a net increase in disorder.

  Then in the 21st century, with the thought experiment solved, the real
  experiments began. “The most important development is we can now
  realize Maxwell’s demon in laboratories,” said Sagawa.

  In 2007 scientists [75]used a light-powered gate to demonstrate the
  idea of Maxwell’s demon in action; in 2010, another team devised a way
  to use the energy produced by the demon’s information to [76]coax a
  bead uphill; and in 2016 scientists applied the idea of Maxwell’s demon
  to two compartments containing not gas, but light.

  “We switched the roles of matter and light,” said [77]Vlatko Vedral, a
  physicist at the University of Oxford and one of the study’s
  co-authors. The researchers were ultimately able to [78]charge a very
  small battery.

  Others wondered if there might be less demanding ways to use
  information to extract useful work from a similar system. And research
  published in February 2021 in [79]Physical Review Letters seems to have
  found a way to do so. The work makes the demon into a gambler.

  The team, led by Manzano, wondered if there was a way to implement
  something like Maxwell’s demon but without the information
  requirements. They imagined a two-compartment system with a door, as
  before. But in this case, the door would open and close on its own.
  Sometimes particles would randomly separate themselves into hotter and
  colder compartments. The demon could only watch this process and decide
  when to turn the system off. In theory this process could create a
  small temperature imbalance, and therefore a useful heat engine, if the
  demon was smart about when to end the experiment and lock any
  temperature imbalance in place, much as a smart gambler on a hot streak
  knows when to leave the table. “You can either play all night on the
  roulette table, or you can stop if you win $100,” said [80]Édgar
  Roldán, a physicist at the International Center for Theoretical Physics
  in Italy who was a co-author on the study. “We’re saying we don’t need
  such a complicated device as Maxwell’s demon to extract work in the
  second law. We can be more relaxed.” The researchers then implemented
  such a gambling demon in a nanoelectronic device, to show it was
  possible.

  Ideas like this could prove useful in designing more efficient thermal
  systems, like refrigerators, or even in developing more advanced
  computer chips, which may be approaching a fundamental limit dictated
  by Landauer’s principle.

  For the time being, though, our laws of the universe are safe, even
  when placed under the greatest scrutiny. What has changed is our
  understanding of information in the universe, and with it our
  appreciation of Maxwell’s demon, first a troublesome paradox, and now
  an invaluable concept—one that has helped to illuminate the remarkable
  link between the physical world and information.
