Characterizing the performance of heat rectifiers

Shishir Khandelwal, Martí Perarnau-Llobet, Stella Seah +2

A physical system connected to two thermal reservoirs at different temperatures is said to act as a heat rectifier when it is able to bias the heat current in a given direction, si…

Uninformed Bayesian Quantum Thermometry

Julia Boeyens, Stella Seah, Stefan Nimmrichter

We study the Bayesian approach to thermometry with no prior knowledge about the expected temperature scale, through the example of energy measurements on fully or partially thermal…

Fundamental limits in Bayesian thermometry and attainability via adaptive strategies

Mohammad Mehboudi, Mathias R. Jørgensen, Stella Seah +3

We investigate the limits of thermometry using quantum probes at thermal equilibrium within the Bayesian approach. We consider the possibility of engineering interactions between t…

Quantum speed-up in collisional battery charging

Stella Seah, Martí Perarnau-Llobet, Géraldine Haack +2

We present a collision model for the charging of a quantum battery by identical nonequilibrium qubit units. When the units are prepared in a mixture of energy eigenstates, the ener…

Surpassing the Thermal Cramer-Rao Bound with Collisional Thermometry

Angeline Shu, Stella Seah, Valerio Scarani

In collisional thermometry, a system in contact with the thermal bath is probed by a stream of ancillas. Coherences and collective measurements were shown to improve the Fisher inf…

Maxwell's lesser demon: a quantum engine driven by pointer measurements

Stella Seah, Stefan Nimmrichter, Valerio Scarani

We discuss a self-contained spin-boson model for a measurement-driven engine, in which a demon generates work from thermal excitations of a quantum spin via measurement and feedbac…
