Title: Time-Reversible Maxwell's Demon
Keywords: Maxwell's demon
irreversibility
phase space compression
sheat engines

Issue Date: 9-Oct-2013
Description: A time-reversible Maxwell's demon is demonstrated which creates a density difference between two chambers initialized to have equal density. The density difference is estimated theoretically and confirmed by computer simulations. It is found that the reversible Maxwell's demon compresses phase space volume even though its dynamics are time reversible. The significance of phase space volume compression in operating a microscopic heat engine is also discussed.
