We can then talk about systems of decreasing entropy, but only relative to systems of increasing entropy (including psychological time). (religion-online.org)
The machine they envision could transfer hot and cold particles between two chambers, thus decreasing entropy, just as Maxwell had imagined. (discovermagazine.com)
ORDER FROM DISORDER Maxwell's Demon (illustrated above) is a hypothetical creature that could illegally decrease entropy, or disorder, by separating faster molecules (blue) from slower ones (green) within a box of gas. (sciencenews.org)
