Quantum Thermodynamics
Quantum thermodynamics aims to bridge quantum mechanics and thermodynamics and is intimately linked with quantum information theory. The definitions and extensions of thermodynamic concepts in quantum domain, possibility of using quantum resources such as coherence and entanglement to enhance the performance of thermodynamic processes and their relationship with heat, work and entropy production are of great interest in this field of study. We are interested in the study of quantum heat engines, quantum reservoir engineering and in general, quantum signatures in thermodynamic processes.
