Restoring heat and particle flow in strongly coupled non-equilibrium devices
Noa Ludwin, Ohad Cremerman, Milan Šindelka +1
Under non-equilibrium conditions, energy/particle currents flow through a quantum system coupled to multiple baths. Although the fluxes increase in the weak coupling regime as the…
Probing Non-equilibrium baths: Frequency-Resolved Thermometry and Quantum Heat Current Turnover
Akhil Bhartiya, Tobias Kramer, David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky
Quantum heat transport for non-equilibrium steady state (NESS) exhibits a characteristic turnover effect, where the heat current reaches a maximum and subsequently declines as syst…
A Contactless Heat Engine Driven by Nonreciprocal Fluctuation-Induced Torques
Dhruv Shah, Kiryl Asheichyk, David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky +3
We describe a contactless heat engine in which quantum and thermal electromagnetic fluctuations act as the working medium. The setup consists of two concentric cylinders held at di…
Necessary conditions for the Markovian Mpemba effect
Ido Avitan, Roee Factor, David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky
The Mpemba effect is a thermodynamic anomaly in which a system farther away in temperature from equilibrium thermalizes before one that is initially closer. The effect has been exp…
Steady state of periodically driven quantum systems
Milan Å indelka, David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky
Periodic driving is used to steer physical systems to unique stationary states or nonequilibrium steady states (NESS), producing enhanced properties inaccessible to non-driven syst…
Thermalization without detailed balance: population oscillations in the absence of coherences
Shay Blum, David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky
Open quantum systems that comply with the master equation and detailed balance decay in a non-oscillatory manner to thermal equilibrium. Beyond the weak coupling limit, systems tha…
