Entropy production in the mesoscopic-leads formulation of quantum thermodynamics
Artur M. Lacerda, Michael J. Kewming, Marlon Brenes +4
Understanding the entropy production of systems strongly coupled to thermal baths is a core problem of both quantum thermodynamics and mesoscopic physics. While there exist many te…
Powering an autonomous clock with quantum electromechanics
Oisin Culhane, Michael J. Kewming, Alessandro Silva +2
We theoretically analyse an autonomous clock comprising a nanoelectromechanical system, which undergoes self-oscillations driven by electron tunnelling. The periodic mechanical mot…
Quantum Many-Body Scars in Dual-Unitary Circuits
Leonard Logarić, Shane Dooley, Silvia Pappalardi +1
Dual-unitary circuits are a class of quantum systems for which exact calculations of various quantities are possible, even for circuits that are nonintegrable. The array of known e…
Calculating the many-body density of states on a digital quantum computer
Alessandro Summer, Cecilia Chiaracane, Mark T. Mitchison +1
Quantum statistical mechanics allows us to extract thermodynamic information from a microscopic description of a many-body system. A key step is the calculation of the density of s…
Variational Gibbs State Preparation on NISQ devices
Mirko Consiglio, Jacopo Settino, Andrea Giordano +6
The preparation of an equilibrium thermal state of a quantum many-body system on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices is an important task in order to extend the range o…
Thermodynamics of a continuously monitored double quantum dot heat engine in the repeated interactions framework
Laetitia P. Bettmann, Michael J. Kewming, John Goold
Understanding the thermodynamic role of measurement in quantum mechanical systems is a burgeoning field of study. In this article, we study a double quantum dot (DQD) connected to…
