There’s are plenty of physics papers that are just mathematical details, but every once in a while, we read a paper that offers a new philosophical view of the universe. To me, such paper’s are the true gem’s, they don’t predict the outcomes specific experiments, but rather alludes to entirely new concepts.
One of the paper’s that I had to pleasure of familiarising myself with recently in Landauer’s early work that discovered the remarkable link between information and physics. In particle, it allows us to explain the Schizard Engine, which seemingly allows extract of energy from a system in thermal equilibrium.
Closer inspection would reveal that the fuel of the enginer is information, and storage of that information costs power… its quite an elegant relation.
