Equilibration of Multitime Quantum Processes in Finite Time Intervals
Neil Dowling, Pedro Figueroa-Romero, Felix A. Pollock +2
A generic non-integrable (unitary) out-of-equilibrium quantum process, when interrogated across many times, is shown to yield the same statistics as an (non-unitary) equilibrated p…
Relaxation of Multitime Statistics in Quantum Systems
Neil Dowling, Pedro Figueroa-Romero, Felix A. Pollock +2
Equilibrium statistical mechanics provides powerful tools to understand physics at the macroscale. Yet, the question remains how this can be justified based on a microscopic quantu…
Open quantum systems coupled to finite baths: A hierarchy of master equations
Andreu Riera-Campeny, Anna Sanpera, Philipp Strasberg
An open quantum system in contact with an infinite bath approaches equilibrium, while the state of the bath remains unchanged. If the bath is finite, the open system still relaxes…
Reply to "Comment on `Measurability of nonequilibrium thermodynamics in terms of the Hamiltonian of mean force'"
Philipp Strasberg, Massimiliano Esposito
We refute the criticism expressed in a comment by P. Talkner and P. Hänggi [Phys. Rev. E 102, 066101 (2020)] on our paper Phys. Rev. E 101, 050101(R) (2020). We first make clear th…
Autonomous implementation of thermodynamic cycles at the nanoscale
Philipp Strasberg, Christopher W. Wächtler, Gernot Schaller
There are two paradigms to study nanoscale engines in stochastic and quantum thermodynamics. Autonomous models, which do not rely on any external time-dependence, and models that m…
