Individual quantum probes for optimal thermometry
Luis A. Correa, Mohammad Mehboudi, Gerardo Adesso +1
The unknown temperature of a sample may be estimated with minimal disturbance by putting it in thermal contact with an individual quantum probe. If the interaction time is sufficie…

Optimal performance of endoreversible quantum refrigerators
Luis A. Correa, José P. Palao, Gerardo Adesso +1
The derivation of general performance benchmarks is important in the design of highly optimized heat engines and refrigerators. To obtain them, one may model phenomenologically the…

Multi-stage quantum absorption heat pumps
Luis A. Correa
It is well known that heat pumps, while being all limited by the same basic thermodynamic laws, may find realization on systems as "small" and "quantum" as a three-level maser. In…
