    "abstract": "If a measurement process is regarded as an irreversible process, then by\nSecond law of thermodynamics the entropy should increase after any measurement\nprocess. By the same spirit a quantum system undergoing repeated measurement\nshould show strong irreversibility leading to entropy production. On the\ncontrary we show that in quantum Zeno effect setting the entropy of a quantum\nsystem decreases and goes to zero after a large number of measurements. We\ndiscuss the entropy change under continuous measurement model and show that\nentropy can decrease if we use a more accurate measuring apparatus.",
