Correlation-Enabled Energy Exchange in Quantum Systems without External Driving
T. Pyhäranta, S. Alipour, A. T. Rezakhani +1
We study the role of correlation in mechanisms of energy exchange between an interacting bipartite quantum system and its environment by decomposing the energy of the system to loc…
Temperature in Nonequilibrium Quantum Systems
S. Alipour, F. Benatti, M. Afsary +4
We extend on ideas from standard thermodynamics to show that temperature can be assigned to a general nonequilibrium quantum system. By choosing a physically motivated complete set…
Unfolding system-environment correlation in open quantum systems: Revisiting master equations and the Born approximation
A. P. Babu, S. Alipour, A. T. Rezakhani +1
Understanding system-bath correlations in open quantum systems is essential for various quantum information and technology applications. Derivations of most master equations (MEs)…
