Observing Time-Dependent Energy Level Renormalisation in an Ultrastrongly Coupled Open System
Alessandra Colla, Florian Hasse, Deviprasath Palani +3
Understanding how strong coupling and memory effects influence the energy levels of open quantum systems is a complex and challenging problem. Here, we show these effects by probin…
Thermodynamic Roles of Quantum Environments: From Heat Baths to Work Reservoirs
Alessandra Colla, Heinz-Peter Breuer
Environments in quantum thermodynamics usually take the role of heat baths. These baths are Markovian, weakly coupled to the system, and initialized in a thermal state. Whenever on…
Quantum thermodynamics of the spin-boson model using the principle of minimal dissipation
Salvatore Gatto, Alessandra Colla, Heinz-Peter Breuer +1
A recently developed approach to the thermodynamics of open quantum systems, on the basis of the principle of minimal dissipation, is applied to the spin-boson model. Employing a n…
