Effective action approach to quantum and thermal effects: from one particle to Bose-Einstein condensates
Luca Salasnich
We present a detailed derivation of the quantum and quantum-thermal effective action for non-relativistic systems, starting from the single particle case and extending to the Gross…
Entropy production and irreversibility in the linearized stochastic Amari neural model
Dario Lucente, Giacomo Gradenigo, Luca Salasnich
One among the most intriguing results coming from the application of statistical mechanics to the study of brain is the understanding that it, as a dynamical system, is inherently…
Quantum action of the Josephson dynamics
Cesare Vianello, Sofia Salvatore, Luca Salasnich
We study the beyond-mean-field Josephson dynamics of the relative phase between two coupled macroscopic quantum systems. Using a covariant background field method, we derive the on…
Interaction between gravitational waves and trapped Bose-Einstein condensates
A. Perodi, L. Salasnich
Inspired by recent proposals for detecting gravitational waves by using Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), we investigate the interplay between these two phenomena. A gravitational…
