Quantum Thermodynamics: A Dynamical Viewpoint

open access: yesEntropy, 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 and measurement in quantum thermodynamics. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2016
Thermodynamics is a highly successful macroscopic theory widely used across the natural sciences and for the construction of everyday devices, from car engines and fridges to power plants and solar cells.

Quantum Thermodynamics at Strong Coupling: Operator Thermodynamic Functions and Relations [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
Identifying or constructing a fine-grained microscopic theory that will emerge under specific conditions to a known macroscopic theory is always a formidable challenge.

Correlations in quantum thermodynamics: Heat, work, and entropy production. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2016
We provide a characterization of energy in the form of exchanged heat and work between two interacting constituents of a closed, bipartite, correlated quantum system.

Gauge-Invariant Quantum Thermodynamics: Consequences for the First Law [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
The universality of classical thermodynamics rests on the central limit theorem, due to which, measurements of thermal fluctuations are unable to reveal detailed information regarding the microscopic structure of a macroscopic body.

Quantum Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesContemporary Physics, 2016
Quantum thermodynamics is an emerging research field aiming to extend standard thermodynamics and non-equilibrium statistical physics to ensembles of sizes well below the thermodynamic limit, in non-equilibrium situations, and with the full inclusion of ...

Probing coherent quantum thermodynamics using a trapped ion [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
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.

Sub-Quantum Thermodynamics as a Basis of Emergent Quantum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: goldEntropy, 2010
This review presents results obtained from our group’s approach to model quantum mechanics with the aid of nonequilibrium thermodynamics. As has been shown, the exact Schrödinger equation can be derived by assuming that a particle of energy  is actually ...

Exploring quantum thermodynamics with NMR

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Open, 2023
Quantum thermodynamics seeks to extend non-equilibrium stochastic thermodynamics to small quantum systems where non-classical features are essential to its description.
