Two recent theoretical advances with potential impact on quantum technology

open access: yesAPL Quantum
Research aimed at elucidating the foundations of quantum theory can have a direct impact on quantum technology. Two examples illustrate this potential: (1) the coupling of quantum systems to arbitrary classical environments that can be described by ...

Resetting as a swift equilibration protocol in an anharmonic potential

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
We present and characterize a method to accelerate the relaxation of a Brownian object between two distinct equilibrium states. Instead of relying on a deterministic time-dependent control parameter, we use stochastic resetting to guide and accelerate ...

Information thermodynamics of cellular ion pumps

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
The framework of bipartite stochastic thermodynamics is a powerful tool to analyze a composite system's internal thermodynamics. It has been used to study the components of different molecular machines such as ATP synthase. However, this approach has not
