Entropy production as correlation between system and reservoir
arXiv:0908.1125 · doi:10.1088/1367-2630/12/1/013013
Abstract
We derive an exact (classical and quantum) expression for the entropy production of a finite system placed in contact with one or several finite reservoirs each of which is initially described by a canonical equilibrium distribution. Whereas the total entropy of system plus reservoirs is conserved, we show that the system entropy production is always positive and is a direct measure of the system-reservoir correlations and/or entanglements. Using an exactly solvable quantum model, we illustrate our novel interpretation of the Second Law in a microscopically reversible finite-size setting, with strong coupling between system and reservoirs. With this model, we also explicitly show the approach of our exact formulation to the standard description of irreversibility in the limit of a large reservoir.
