Reversing the direction of heat flow using quantum correlations
Kaonan Micadei, John P. S. Peterson, Alexandre M. Souza +6
Heat spontaneously flows from hot to cold in standard thermodynamics. However, the latter theory presupposes the absence of initial correlations between interacting systems. We her…
The role of quantum coherence in non-equilibrium entropy production
Jader P. Santos, Lucas C. Céleri, Gabriel T. Landi +1
Thermodynamic irreversibility is well characterized by the entropy production arising from non-equilibrium quantum processes. We show that the entropy production of a quantum syste…
Lindblad dynamics of the quantum spherical model
Sascha Wald, Gabriel T. Landi, Malte Henkel
The purely relaxational non-equilibrium dynamics of the quantum spherical model as described through a Lindblad equation is analysed. It is shown that the phenomenological requirem…
The Wigner Entropy Production Rate
Jader P. Santos, Gabriel T. Landi, Mauro Paternostro
The characterization of irreversibility in general quantum processes is an open problem of increasing techno- logical relevance. Yet, the tools currently available to this aim are…
