Gravitational Thermodynamics of Space-time Foam in One-loop Approximation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We show from one-loop quantum gravity and statistical thermodynamics that the thermodynamics of quantum foam in flat space-time and Schwarzschild space-time is exactly the same as that of Hawking-Unruh radiation in thermal equilibrium. This means we show

All States are Universal Catalysts in Quantum Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Quantum catalysis is a fascinating concept which demonstrates that certain transformations can only become possible when given access to a specific resource that has to be returned unaffected. It was first discovered in the context of entanglement theory

Quantum thermodynamics of general quantum processes [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2015
Accurately describing work extraction from a quantum system is a central objective for the extension of thermodynamics to individual quantum systems. The concepts of work and heat are surprisingly subtle when generalizations are made to arbitrary quantum states.

Quantum Thermodynamics: A Nonequilibrium Green's Functions Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We establish the foundations of a nonequilibrium theory of quantum thermodynamics for noninteracting open quantum systems strongly coupled to their reservoirs within the framework of the nonequilibrium Green functions (NEGF). The energy of the system and

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

A Resource Theory for Work and Heat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Several recent results on thermodynamics have been obtained using the tools of quantum information theory and resource theories. So far, the resource theories utilised to describe thermodynamics have assumed the existence of an infinite thermal reservoir,
