Quantum thermodynamics : quantum szilard engine powered by quantum coherence
Traditional thermodynamics assumes that physical systems live in a probabilistic mixture of energy eigenstates, such that any lack of knowledge of each system’s definite energy is due to classical uncertainty. However, quantum mechanics enables systems to be a quantum superposition of eigenstates, a...
