First Passage Times for Continuous Quantum Measurement Currents

Michael J. Kewming, Anthony Kiely, Steve Campbell +1

The First Passage Time (FPT) is the time taken for a stochastic process to reach a desired threshold. In this letter we address the FPT of the stochastic measurement current in the…

Thermometry of Strongly Correlated Fermionic Quantum Systems using Impurity Probes

George Mihailescu, Steve Campbell, Andrew K. Mitchell

We study quantum impurity models as a platform for quantum thermometry. A single quantum spin-1/2 impurity is coupled to an explicit, structured, fermionic thermal environment whic…

Entropy of the quantum work distribution

Anthony Kiely, Eoin O'Connor, Thomás Fogarty +2

The statistics of work done on a quantum system can be quantified by the two-point measurement scheme. We show how the Shannon entropy of the work distribution admits a general upp…

DQC1 as an Open Quantum System

Jake Xuereb, Steve Campbell, John Goold +1

The DQC1 complexity class, or power of one qubit model, is examined as an open quantum system. We study the dynamics of a register of qubits carrying out a DQC1 algorithm and show…

Non-Gaussian work statistics at finite-time driving

Krissia Zawadzki, Anthony Kiely, Gabriel T. Landi +1

We study properties of the work distribution of a many-body system driven through a quantum phase transition in finite time. We focus on the non-Gaussianity of the distribution, wh…

Commutativity and the emergence of classical objectivity

Eoghan Ryan, Eoin Carolan, Steve Campbell +1

We examine how the ability of a system to redundantly proliferate relevant information about its pointer states is affected when it is coupled to multiple baths. To this end, we co…

Classical dissipative cost of quantum control

Anthony Kiely, Steve Campbell, Gabriel T. Landi

Protocols for non-adiabatic quantum control often require the use of classical time varying fields. Assessing the thermodynamic cost of such protocols, however, is far from trivial…

Correlations, information backflow, and objectivity in a class of pure dephasing models

Nina Megier, Andrea Smirne, Steve Campbell +1

We critically examine the role that correlations established between a system and fragments of its environment play in characterising the ensuing dynamics. We employ a class of dep…

Diverging quantum speed limits: a herald of classicality

Pablo M. Poggi, Steve Campbell, Sebastian Deffner

When is the quantum speed limit (QSL) really quantum? While vanishing QSL times often indicate emergent classical behavior, it is still not entirely understood what precise aspects…
