Cooperative many-body enhancement of quantum thermal machine power
We study the impact of cooperative many-body effects on the operation of periodically-driven quantum thermal machines, particularly heat engines and refrigerators. In suitable geometries, N two-level atoms can exchange energy with the driving field and the (hot and cold) thermal baths at a faster ra...
