Dissipation Pathways in a Photosynthetic Complex
Ignacio Gustin, Chang Woo Kim, Ignacio Franco
Determining how energy flows within and between molecules is crucial for understanding chemical reactions, material properties, and even vital processes such as photosynthesis. Whi…
General framework for quantifying dissipation pathways in open quantum systems. III. Off-diagonal system-bath couplings
Ignacio Gustin, Chang Woo Kim, Ignacio Franco
This paper extends the previously reported theory of dissipation pathways [J. Chem. Phys. 160, 214111 (2024)] to incorporate off-diagonal subsystem-bath coupling, which is often re…
General Framework for Quantifying Dissipation Pathways in Open Quantum Systems. II. Numerical Validation and the Role of Non-Markovianity
Chang Woo Kim, Ignacio Franco
In the previous paper [C. W. Kim and I. Franco, J. Chem. Phys. 160, 214111 (2024)], we developed a theory called MQME-D, which allows us to decompose the overall energy dissipation…
General Framework for Quantifying Dissipation Pathways in Open Quantum Systems. I. Theoretical Formulation
Chang Woo Kim, Ignacio Franco
We present a general and practical theoretical framework to investigate how energy is dissipated in open quantum system dynamics. This is done by quantifying the contributions of i…
