Nonequilibrium entropy production for open quantum systems.
We consider open quantum systems weakly coupled to a heat reservoir and driven by arbitrary time-dependent parameters. We derive exact microscopic expressions for the nonequilibrium entropy production and entropy production rate, valid arbitrarily far from equilibrium. By using the two-point energy measurement statistics for system and reservoir, we further obtain a quantum generalization of th...
متن کاملEntropy production in nonequilibrium systems at stationary states.
We present a stochastic approach to nonequilibrium thermodynamics based on the expression of the entropy production rate advanced by Schnakenberg for systems described by a master equation. From the microscopic Schnakenberg expression we get the macroscopic bilinear form for the entropy production rate in terms of fluxes and forces. This is performed by placing the system in contact with two re...
متن کاملProbability currents and entropy production in nonequilibrium lattice systems.
The structure of probability currents is studied for the dynamical network after consecutive contraction on two-state, nonequilibrium lattice systems. This procedure allows us to investigate the transition rates between configurations on small clusters and highlights some relevant effects of lattice symmetries on the elementary transitions that are responsible for entropy production. A method i...
متن کاملEntropy production along nonequilibrium quantum jump trajectories
For classical nonequilibrium systems, the separation of the total entropy production into the adiabatic and nonadiabatic contributions is useful for understanding irreversibility in nonequilibrium thermodynamics. In this paper, we formulate quantum analogues for driven open quantum systems describable by quantum jump trajectories by applying a quantum stochastic thermodynamics. Our main conclus...
متن کاملMaximizing entropy change for nonequilibrium systems
We propose maximizing the change of thermodynamic entropy in order to obtain the probability distributions for nonequilibrium systems in steady or stationary evolution. Arguments are forwarded to support this approach. A path information leading to Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy is defined for an ensemble of possible trajectories between two points in phase space. It is shown that the maximization of...
