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…
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…
Detection of interaction-induced nonlocal effects using perfectly transmitting nanostructures
Dietmar Weinmann, Rodolfo A. Jalabert, Axel Freyn +2
We consider one-dimensional transport through an interacting region in series with a point-like one-body scatterer. When the conductance of the interacting region is perfect, indep…
