Quantum Thermodynamics with Degenerate Eigenstate Coherences

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
We establish quantum thermodynamics for open quantum systems weakly coupled to their reservoirs when the system exhibits degeneracies. The first and second law of thermodynamics are derived, as well as a finite-time fluctuation theorem for mechanical ...

Thermodynamics of quantum information scrambling [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2017
Scrambling of quantum information can be conveniently quantified by so called out-of-time-order-correlators (OTOCs), whose measurements presents a formidable experimental challenge. Here we report on a method for the measurement of OTOCs based on the so-called two-point measurements scheme developed in the field of non-equilibrium quantum ...

Entropy Exchange and Thermodynamic Properties of the Single Ion Cooling Process

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
A complete quantum cooling cycle may be a useful platform for studying quantum thermodynamics just as the quantum heat engine does. Entropy change is an important feature which can help us to investigate the thermodynamic properties of the single ion ...

Daemonic ergotropy: enhanced work extraction from quantum correlations

open access: yesnpj Quantum Information, 2017
Quantum thermodynamics: Quantum correlations are key for work extraction! A strong connection exists between the ability of a quantum system to perform thermodynamic work and the amount of quantum correlations that are set in its physical configuration ...

Thermodynamics and quantum correlations

open access: yes, 2023
Thermodynamics traditionally deals with macroscopic systems at thermal equilibrium. However, since the very beginning of the theory, its range of applicability has only increased, nowadays being applied to virtually every field of science, and to systems of extremely different size. This thesis is devoted to the study of thermodynamics in the quantum

Thermodynamics of discrete quantum processes [PDF]

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
We define thermodynamic configurations and identify two primitives of discrete quantum processes between configurations for which heat and work can be defined in a natural way. This allows us to uncover a general second law for any discrete trajectory that consists of a sequence of these primitives, linking both equilibrium and non-equilibrium ...

Entropy production along nonequilibrium quantum jump trajectories

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
For classical nonequilibrium systems, the separation of the total entropy production into the adiabatic and nonadiabatic contributions is useful for understanding irreversibility in nonequilibrium thermodynamics.
