Superadiabatic quantum friction suppression in finite-time thermodynamics
Shujin Deng, Aurélia Chenu, Pengpeng Diao +5
Optimal performance of thermal machines is reached by suppressing friction. Friction in quantum thermodynamics results from fast driving schemes that generate nonadiabatic excitati…
Quantum work statistics, Loschmidt echo and information scrambling
Aurélia Chenu, Iñigo L. Egusquiza, Javier Molina-Vilaplana +1
A universal relation is established between the quantum work probability distribution of an isolated driven quantum system and the Loschmidt echo dynamics of a two-mode squeezed st…
Composite boson signature in the interference pattern of atomic dimer condensates
Shiue-Yuan Shiau, Aurélia Chenu, Monique Combescot
We predict the existence of high frequency modes in the interference pattern of two condensates made of fermionic-atom dimers. These modes, which result from fermion exchanges betw…
Quantum Speed Limits Across the Quantum-to-Classical Transition
B. Shanahan, A. Chenu, N. Margolus +1
Quantum speed limits set an upper bound to the rate at which a quantum system can evolve. Adopting a phase-space approach we explore quantum speed limits across the quantum to clas…
Light Adaptation in Phycobilisome antennas: Influence on the Rod Length and Structural Arrangement
Aurélia Chenu, Nir Keren, Yossi Paltiel +3
Phycobilisomes, the light-harvesting antennas of cyanobacteria, can adapt to a wide range of environments thanks to a composition and function response to stress conditions. We stu…
Many-body formalism for thermally excited wave-packets: A way to connect the quantum regime to the classical regime
Aurélia Chenu, Monique Combescot
Free classical particles have well-defined momentum and position, while free quantum particles have well-defined momentum but a position fully delocalized over the sample volume. W…
