Quantum vs Classical Thermal Transport at Low Temperatures
Zhixing Zou, Jiangbin Gong, Jiao Wang +2
This work aims to understand how quantum mechanics affects heat transport at low temperatures. In the classical setting, by considering a simple paradigmatic model, our simulations…
Rectification of heat current in Corbino geometry
Zhixing Zou, Giulio Casati, Giuliano Benenti +1
We prove analytically the ballistic thermal rectification effect (BTRE) in the Corbino disk characterized by an annular shape. We derive the thermal rectification efficiency (RE) a…
Quantum computation of complex systems
Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati
This chapter is a short pedagogical introduction to the use of quantum logic for the simulation of complex quantum systems, including a simulation example on actual quantum hardwar…
Autonomous Circular Heat Engine
Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati, Fabio Marchesoni +1
A dynamical model of a highly efficient heat engine is proposed, where an applied temperature difference maintains the motion of particles around the circuit consisting of two asym…
Statistical and dynamical properties of the quantum triangle map
Jiaozi Wang, Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati +1
We study the statistical and dynamical properties of the quantum triangle map, whose classical counterpart can exhibit ergodic and mixing dynamics, but is never chaotic. Numerical…
Classical physics and blackbody radiation
Jiao Wang, Giulio Casati, Giuliano Benenti
We investigate the properties of the blackbody spectrum by direct numerical solution of the classical equations of motion of a one-dimensional model that contains the essential gen…
