Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of erasure with superconducting flux logic

We implement a thermal-fluctuation-driven logical bit reset on a superconducting flux logic cell. We show that the logical state of the system can be continuously monitored with only a small perturbation to the thermally activated dynamics at 500 mK. We use the trajectory information to derive a sin...
