Nonequilibrium Many-Body Quantum Engine Driven by Time-Translation Symmetry Breaking (2020)
Journal Article
Carollo, F., Brandner, K., & Lesanovsky, I. (2020). Nonequilibrium Many-Body Quantum Engine Driven by Time-Translation Symmetry Breaking. Physical Review Letters, 125(24), Article 240602. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.240602

Quantum many-body systems out of equilibrium can host intriguing phenomena such as transitions to exotic dynamical states. Although this emergent behaviour can be observed in experiments, its potential for technological applications is largely unexpl...

Nonequilibrium Quantum Many-Body Rydberg Atom Engine (2020)
Journal Article
Carollo, F., Gambetta, F. M., Brandner, K., Garrahan, J. P., & Lesanovsky, I. (2020). Nonequilibrium Quantum Many-Body Rydberg Atom Engine. Physical Review Letters, 124(17), Article 170602. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.124.170602

The standard approach to quantum engines is based on equilibrium systems and on thermo-dynamic transformations between Gibbs states. However, non-equilibrium quantum systems offer enhanced experimental flexibility in the control of their parameters a... Read More about Nonequilibrium Quantum Many-Body Rydberg Atom Engine.
