Quantum in Biology, Quantum for Biology, and Biology for Quantum: Mapping the Evidence and the Road Ahead
Lea Gassab, Betony Adams, Yashine H. Goolam Hossen +7
Quantum science and biology now intersect in three complementary directions: quantum in biology, quantum for biology, and biology for quantum. This review provides a structured nar…
Catalytic quantum thermodynamics beyond additivity and reduced-state monotones
Ali Can Günhan, Onur Pusuluk, Thomas Oikonomou +1
The generalized second laws of quantum thermodynamics are usually formulated in terms of Rényi divergences and the associated family of generalized free energies. In catalytic the…
Thermodynamic limits of the Mpemba effect: A unified resource theory analysis of correlation-enabled mechanisms
Doruk Can Alyürük, Mahir H. YeÅiller, Vlatko Vedral +1
The Mpemba effect, in which a hotter system cools faster than a colder one, remains one of the most intriguing anomalies in thermodynamics. Here, we investigate its microscopic ori…
Quantum Information Flow in Microtubule Tryptophan Networks
Lea Gassab, Onur Pusuluk, Travis J. A. Craddock
Networks of aromatic amino acid residues within microtubules, particularly those formed by tryptophan, may serve as pathways for optical information flow. Ultraviolet excitation dy…
Steady-State Entanglement Generation via Casimir-Polder Interactions
Mohsen Izadyari, Onur Pusuluk, Kanu Sinha +1
We investigate the generation of steady-state entanglement between two atoms resulting from the fluctuation-mediated Casimir-Polder (CP) interactions near a surface. Starting with…
Quantum thermal machine as a rectifier
M. Santiago-GarcÃa, O. Pusuluk, Ã. E. MüstecaplıoÄlu +2
We study a chain of interacting individual quantum systems connected to heat baths at different temperatures on both ends. Starting with the two-system case, we thoroughly investig…
