Specific heat anomalies of open quantum systems
Gert-Ludwig Ingold, Peter Hänggi, Peter Talkner
The evaluation of the specific heat of an open, damped quantum system is a subtle issue. One possible route is based on the thermodynamic partition function which is the ratio of t…
Landau-Zener tunnelling in dissipative circuit QED
David Zueco, Peter Hänggi, Sigmund Kohler
We investigate the influence of temperature and dissipation on the Landau-Zener transition probability in circuit QED. Dissipation is modelled by coupling the transmission line to…
Finite quantum dissipation: the challenge of obtaining specific heat
Peter Hänggi, Gert-Ludwig Ingold, Peter Talkner
We consider a free particle coupled with finite strength to a bath and investigate the evaluation of its specific heat. A harmonic oscillator bath of Drude type with cutoff frequen…
