Probing Quantum Interference Effects in the Work Distribution
Paolo Solinas, Simone Gasparinetti
What is the role of coherence in determining the distribution of work done on a quantum system? We approach this question from an operational perspective and consider a setup in wh…

Full distribution of work done on a quantum system for arbitrary initial states
P. Solinas, S. Gasparinetti
We propose a novel approach to define and measure the statistics of work, internal energy and dissipated heat in a driven quantum system. In our framework the presence of a physica…

Heat-exchange statistics in driven open quantum systems
S. Gasparinetti, P. Solinas, A. Braggio +1
As the dimensions of physical systems approach the nanoscale, the laws of thermodynamics must be reconsidered due to the increased importance of fluctuations and quantum effects. W…
