Tom’s Demon Challenges the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Authors: Radhakrishnamurty Padyala

This article describes a new demon of the second law of thermodynamics. We name it Tom’s Demon. It acts on lines similar to those on which the famous Maxwell’s demon acts. Tom’s Demon sorts out salt and sugar particles from a mixture of the two without spending any energy. It reduces the entropy of an isolated system thereby reducing the entropy of the universe. and poses a challenge to the second law of thermodynamics just as Maxwell’s demon does.
