Abstract

We present a variation on the Szilard one-atom engine "paradox," in which an adiabatic (in the quantum-mechanical sense) splitting of the container removes the need for a demon or measurement. We show that the solution depends on an interesting difference between the energetic cost of raising partitions in quantum and classical containers.
