The energy charging of a quantum battery is analyzed in an open quantum setting, where
the interaction between the battery element and the external power source is mediated by …

We present a systematic analysis and classification of several models of quantum batteries
involving different combinations of two-level systems and quantum harmonic oscillators. In …

An open question of fundamental importance in thermodynamics is how to describe the
fluctuations of work for quantum coherent processes. In the standard approach, based on a …

This article sets up a new formalism to investigate stochastic thermodynamics in the
quantum regime, where stochasticity and irreversibility primarily come from quantum …

Various approaches of defining and determining work performed on a quantum system are
compared. Any operational definition of work, however, must allow for two facts: first, that …

The collective and quantum behavior of many-body systems may be harnessed to achieve
fast charging of energy storage devices, which have been recently dubbed quantum …

Inspired by the idea that quantum computers can be useful in advancing basic science, we
use a quantum processor to experimentally validate a number of theoretical results in non …

One of the most important goals in quantum thermodynamics is to demonstrate advantages
of themodynamic protocols over their classical counterparts. For that, it is necessary to (i) …

According to Clausius formulation of the second law of thermodynamics, for any thermal
machine withdrawing heats Q 1, 2 from two heat reservoirs at temperatures T 1, 2, it holds …

Scrambling of quantum information can conveniently be quantified by so-called out-of-time-
order correlators (OTOCs), ie, correlators of the type〈[W τ, V]†[W τ, V]〉, whose …
