چکیده

Entanglement within a given device provides a potential resource for quantum information processing. Entanglement between system and environment leads to decoherence (thus suppressing non-classical features within the system) but also opens up a route to robust and universal control. The latter is related to thermodynamic equilibrium, a generic behavior of bi-partite quantum systems. Fingerprints of this equilibrium behavior (including relaxation and stability) show up already far from the thermodynamic limit, where a complete solution of the underlying Schrödinger dynamics of the total system is still feasible.

Thermodynamic simulation and pinch analysis of KCS11

In this study, a reputable Kalina cycle system, KCS 11, is simulated and analysed. Within this efficient cycle, there are three heat exchangers: the first heat exchanger is designated for heat absorption from the heat source, the second heat exchanger is designed for heat release to the cold source, and the third heat exchanger is designed for energy recovery. In order to achieve precise si...

Emergence of canonical ensembles from pure quantum states.

We consider a system weakly interacting with a bath as a thermodynamic setting to establish a quantum foundation of statistical physics. It is shown that even if the composite system is initially in an arbitrary nonequilibrium pure quantum state, the unitary dynamics of a generic weak interaction almost always drives the subsystem into the canonical ensemble, in the usual sense of typicality. A...

A ug 1 99 6 Study of composite fermions : Beyond few particle systems

We construct a new representation of composite fermion wave functions in the lowest Landau level which enables Monte Carlo computations at arbitrary filling factors for a fairly large number of composite fermions, thus clearing the way toward a more detailed quantitative investigation of the fractional quantum Hall effect. As an illustrative application, thermodynamic estimates for the transpor...

Quantum Mechanical Foundations of Causal Entropic Forces

The theory of Causal Entropic Forces was introduced to explain the emergence of intelligence as a phenomenon in physical systems. Although the theory provides illustrations of how behavior shaped by causal entropic forces resembles human cognitive niche in specific simple settings, the theory leaves open some important questions. First, the definition of causal entropic forces, in terms of acti...

Quantum Mechanical Study of the Structure, NBO and HOMO–LUMO Analysis of Molecule Oxaliplatinium

Oxaliplatinium is an anticancer drug, used in chemotherapy. To investigate the oxaliplatinium structure based on frontier orbital analysis, thermodynamic analysis and natural bond orbital (NBO) theory is the main objective of the present research. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that charge transfer occurs within molecule. The NBO charges, the values of electric dipole moment (µ) of ...
