A review of quantum thermodynamics
In this article, we present a brief and elementary review of quantum thermodynamics and its achievements and challenges. This review includes an introduction to some fundamental concepts such as internal energy, heat, work, entropy, entropy production, thermal equilibrium, second law of quantum thermodynamics, relation between thermodynamics and information theory, as well as a discussion of ho...
متن کاملQuantum friction of micromechanical resonators at low temperatures.
Dissipation of micro- and nanoscale mechanical structures is dominated by quantum-mechanical tunneling of two-level defects intrinsically present in the system. We find that at high frequencies-usually, for smaller, micron-scale structures-a novel mechanism of phonon pumping of two-level defects gives rise to weakly temperature-dependent internal friction, Q-1, concomitant to the effects observ...
متن کاملQuantum Turbulence at Very Low Temperatures: Status and Prospects
The theory of how turbulent energy decays via a Richardson cascade is well-established for classical fluids, and it also seems to apply to the case of so-called co-flowing He II turbulence in the range from the superfluid transition temperature 7\ down to ~1 K, where its behaviour is similar to that of a classical fluid. For pure superfluids, e.g. He II in the mK range or He-B in the jiK range,...
متن کاملLow-temperature thermodynamics with quantum coherence
Thermal operations are an operational model of non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics. In the absence of coherence between energy levels, exact state transition conditions under thermal operations are known in terms of a mathematical relation called thermo-majorization. But incorporating coherence has turned out to be challenging, even under the relatively tractable model wherein all Gibbs stat...
متن کاملSample environment at low temperatures
2014 A review of low temperature techniques as applied to neutron scattering studies is presented. Methods of temperature measurements especially carbon thermometry are discussed. Problems of heat transfer are treated in detail for different kind of samples and some solutions are proposed. Revue Phys. Appl. 19 (1984) 677-683 SEPTEMBRE 1984, The number of neutron scattering studies at temperatur...
