Thermodynamically ideal quantum state inputs to any device

We investigate and ascertain the ideal inputs to any finite-time physical process. We demonstrate that the expectation values of entropy flow, heat, and work can all be determined via Hermitian observables of the initial state. These Hermitian operators encapsulate the breadth of behavior and the id...
