Probing coherent quantum thermodynamics using a trapped ion [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2022 Quantum thermodynamics is aimed at grasping thermodynamic laws as they apply to thermal machines operating in the deep quantum regime, where coherence and entanglement are expected to matter.

Quantum Thermodynamics: A Dynamical Viewpoint
Entropy, 2013 Quantum thermodynamics addresses the emergence of thermodynamic laws from quantum mechanics. The viewpoint advocated is based on the intimate connection of quantum thermodynamics with the theory of open quantum systems. Quantum mechanics inserts dynamics

Coherence distillation machines are impossible in quantum thermodynamics. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2020 The role of coherence in quantum thermodynamics has been extensively studied in the recent years and it is now well-understood that coherence between different energy eigenstates is a resource independent of other thermodynamics resources, such as work ...

Quantum thermodynamics of single particle systems. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 Thermodynamics is built with the concept of equilibrium states. However, it is less clear how equilibrium thermodynamics emerges through the dynamics that follows the principle of quantum mechanics.

Energy-temperature uncertainty relation in quantum thermodynamics. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2018 It is known that temperature estimates of macroscopic systems in equilibrium are most precise when their energy fluctuations are large. However, for nanoscale systems deviations from standard thermodynamics arise due to their interactions with the ...

Correlations as a resource in quantum thermodynamics. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2019 The presence of correlations in physical systems can be a valuable resource for many quantum information tasks. They are also relevant in thermodynamic transformations, and their creation is usually associated to some energetic cost.

Quantum majorization and a complete set of entropic conditions for quantum thermodynamics. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2018 What does it mean for one quantum process to be more disordered than another? Interestingly, this apparently abstract question arises naturally in a wide range of areas such as information theory, thermodynamics, quantum reference frames, and the ...
