Figure 1

Particle m is placed into the twin-well, symmetrical, frictionless bowl, built of two identical spherical wells labeled “I” and “II”. The initial location of the particle is denoted “a”. Location of the particle in the well labeled “I” corresponds to the informational state “0”; the location of the particle in the well “II” corresponds to the informational state “1”. The inertial force Fin,m=ma transfers the particle from the well “I” to the well “II” (the blue arrow indicates the a→b→c path of the particle, driven by the inertial force).
