The Free Energy Requirements of Biological Organisms; Implications for Evolution

The Free Energy Requirements of Biological Organisms; Implications for Evolution

Recent advances in nonequilibrium statistical physics have provided unprecedented insight into the thermodynamics of dynamic processes. The author recently used these advances to extend Landauer’s semi-formal reasoning concerning the thermodynamics of bit erasure, to derive the minimal free energy r...
