Numerically “exact” simulations of a quantum Carnot cycle: Analysis using thermodynamic work diagrams

S Koyanagi, Y Tanimura - The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
We investigate the efficiency of a quantum Carnot engine based on open quantum dynamics
theory. The model includes time-dependent external fields for the subsystems controlling the …

The laws of thermodynamics for quantum dissipative systems: A quasi-equilibrium Helmholtz energy approach

S Koyanagi, Y Tanimura - The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
By using the quasi-equilibrium Helmholtz energy, which is defined as the thermodynamic
work in a quasi-static process, we investigate the thermal properties of both an isothermal …

Estimation of the influence of a noisy environment on the binary decision strategy in a quantum illumination radar

S Borderieux, A Coatanhay, A Khenchaf - Sensors, 2022 - mdpi.com
A quantum illumination radar uses quantum entanglement to enhance photodetection
sensitivity. The entanglement is quickly destroyed by the decoherence in an environment …
