	Maxwell's demon Information - maxwells demon
		Maxwell's demon is a character in an 1867 thought experiment by the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell, meant to raise questions about the second law of thermodynamics.
		Maxwell's Demon is mentioned as well in the Novel Homo Faber by Swiss author Max Frisch, as well as in the Novel The Cyberiad of science fiction author Stanisław Lem.
		Maxwell's Demons are used as doorkeepers in a magic research institute in the Novel Monday Begins on Saturday by Boris and Arkady Strugatsky.

		Maxwell also developed the kinetic theory of gases, which explains the physical properties and nature of a gas.
		Maxwell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and was educated at the universities of Edinburgh and Cambridge.
		Maxwell's theories helped scientists determine the numerical equality of the velocity of light in cgs units and the ratio of electromagnetic to electrostatic units.

		In 1871, James Clerk Maxwell imagined a situation where a very small and nimble being could, by opening and closing a valve between two gas-filled chambers, allow only faster molecules to go through one way and only slower molecules to go through the other.
		By doing this, the being (later called a demon) could raise the temperature of one chamber and lower the temperature of the other, without the expenditure of work.
		This was a violation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, and he asserted that this could not actually occur.

		Maxwell's Demon is a thought experiment which has a door that is opened and shut when a molecule of gas approaches.
		Exploring Maxwell's demon, the idea was that one does not want to extract any energy as heat.
		This graph depicts a Maxwell Demon unit which measures 5X5 inches and is a sandwich of copper foil in the center, with fiberglass screen on each side of the foil, and 1/4 inch aluminum plate on each side.

		In 1871, James Clerk Maxwell imagined a situation where a very small and nimble being could, by opening and closing a valve between two gas-filled chambers, allow only faster particles to go through one way and only slower particles to go through the other.
		By doing this, the being (later called a demon) could raise the temperature of one chamber (faster particles) and lower the temperature of the other (slower particles), without the expenditure of work.
		Another way of increasing order and later extracting energy might be to allow the valve to let through particles in only one direction, so that eventually one chamber is filled with gas, while the other one ends up empty.

		Sitting atop the tunnel was a "Demon," who, by exercising his powers of observation, could tell when a hot (faster) molecule was approaching the door from the right compartment.
		Soon, simply by exercising his powers of observation, the Demon had created a heat differential where there was none before, countermanding Maxwell's own Second Law.
		It was this observation that inspired Shannon to posit his formulation that all transmissions of information require a phsyical channel, and later to equate (along with his co-worker Warren Weaver, and in parallel to Norbert Wiener) the entropy of energy with a certain amount of information (negentropy).

		I 1871 foreslo den skotske fysikaren James Clerk Maxwell eit tankeeksperiment: Ein gassbehaldarar er skild i to avdelingar med ein vegg som har ein lita dør.
		Denne døra er vokta av ein liten demon som er i stand til å sjå farten til innkommande gassmolekyler.
		For å forklara paradokset vert det peika på at demonen må bruka energi for å observera molekyla (i form av fotoner feks.) og at demonen sjølv vil få auka sin entropi slik at systemets totale entropi aukar.

		Maxwell's Demon is still a rock band, however, inspired by "new" progressive rock like Änglagård, Univers Zero, and Anekdoten as well as the usual collection of "old" stuff like King Crimson, Gentle Giant, Genesis, and Rush.

		Well, it is called "Maxwells demon" but it isn't a Maxwells demon in the sense that it isn't a gear that violates the second law.

		Maxwells demon är en hypotetisk liten varelse som enligt James Clerk Maxwell skulle kunna skilja snabba molekyler från långsamma i en gas.
		Haken i Maxwells demon är att demonen behöver information om varje molekyls hastighet för att veta vilka den ska släppa igenom.
		Jag skulle nog vilja säga att den egentliga haken är att det inte finns några demoner.
