Negative Differential Heat Conductivity in a Harmonic Chain Coupled to a Particle Reservoir
Simon Krekels, Christian Maes, Ion Santra +1
When coupling thermal baths at different temperatures, negative differential thermal conductivity is typically attributed to nonlinear interactions in the connecting medium. In thi…
Current Conservation in the Self-Consistent Josephson Junction
Simon Krekels, Vukan Levajac, Kristof Moors +2
Conventional treatments of Josephson junctions (JJs) are typically not current-conserving. In the mean-field BCS theory, current conservation is only guaranteed if the superconduct…
Zig-zag dynamics in a Stern-Gerlach spin measurement
Simon Krekels, Christian Maes, Kasper Meerts +1
The one-century-old Stern-Gerlach setup is paradigmatic for a quantum measurement. We visualize the electron trajectories following the Bohmian zig-zag dynamics. This dynamics was…
Double-slit experiment revisited
Siddhant Das, Dirk-André Deckert, Leopold Kellers +2
The double-slit experiment is one of the quintessential quantum experiments. However, it tends to be overlooked that a theoretical account of this experiment requires the specifica…
Exact computation of heat capacities for active particles on a graph
Faezeh Khodabandehlou, Simon Krekels, Irene Maes
The notion of a nonequilibrium heat capacity is important for bio-energetics and for calorimetry of active materials more generally. It centers around the notion of excess heat or…
Inducing a bound state between active particles
Pritha Dolai, Simon Krekels, Christian Maes
We show that two active particles can form a bound state by coupling to a driven nonequilibrium environment. We specifically investigate the case of two mutually noninteracting run…
