Engines are systems and devices that convert one form of energy into another, typically into
a more useful form that can perform work. In the classical setup, physical, chemical, and …

The thermodynamic and kinetic uncertainty relations indicate trade-offs between the relative
fluctuation of observables and thermodynamic quantities such as dissipation and dynamical …

A deeper understanding of the differences between quantum and classical dynamics
promises great potential for emerging technologies. Nevertheless, some aspects remain …

Understanding current fluctuations is of fundamental importance and paves the way for the
development of practical applications. According to the thermodynamic and kinetic …

Recently, an unconditional advantage has been demonstrated for the process of charging of
a quantum battery in a collisional model [Seah et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 127, 100601 (2021) …

The full optimization of a quantum heat engine requires operating at high power, high
efficiency, and high stability (ie, low power fluctuations). However, these three objectives …

The thermodynamic uncertainty relation, quantifying a trade-off among average current, the
associated fluctuation (precision), and entropy production (cost), has been formulated at …

We study fluctuations in many-body quantum heat engines operating in the presence of
collective system-bath interactions. We show that collective effects in open quantum systems …

We theoretically and experimentally study the precision of a quantum clock near zero
temperature, explicitly accounting for the effect of continuous measurement. The clock is …

Describing the thermodynamic properties of quantum systems far from equilibrium is
challenging, in particular when the system is strongly coupled to its environment, or when …
