Efficiencies and Work Losses for Cycles Interacting with Reservoirs of Apparent Negative Temperatures

Inverted quantum states of apparent negative temperature store the work required for their creation [Struchtrup. <i>Phys. Rev. Lett.</i> <b>2018</b>, <i>120</i>, 250602]. Thermodynamic cycles operating between a classical reservoir and an inverted state reservoir...
