Quantum Zeno effect; can you really Freeze time?

from Echos In Time; The Science of Infinite Branching · host Harri

uantum Zeno Effect (QZE) demonstrates how frequent quantum measurements can halt the natural evolution of a quantum system. In this paper, we explore how the QZE influences the system's entropy, effectively freezing the entropic progression that would naturally occur as time advances. By analyzing the interaction between wavefunction collapse and the second law of thermodynamics, we provide insights into the mechanisms by which quantum measurements interfere with entropy increase and the broader implications for time and thermodynamics
