Quantum Thermodynamics: A Dynamical Viewpoint [PDF]

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

Exploring quantum thermodynamics with NMR

Journal 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.

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

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

Entropy, 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.

Probing coherent quantum thermodynamics using a trapped ion [PDF]

Nature 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.

Can Quantum Correlations Lead to Violation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics?

Entropy, 2021
Quantum entanglement can cause the efficiency of a heat engine to be greater than the efficiency of the Carnot cycle. However, this does not mean a violation of the second law of thermodynamics, since there is no local equilibrium for pure quantum states,
