Controlling and measuring the temperature in different devices and platforms that operate in
the quantum regime is, without any doubt, essential for any potential application. In this …

I give a self-contained introduction to the resource theory approach to quantum
thermodynamics. I will introduce in an elementary manner the technical machinery …

We consider a collection of two level systems, such as qubits, embedded into a microwave
cavity as a promising candidate for the realization of high power quantum batteries. In this …

The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) explains why nonintegrable quantum many-
body systems thermalize internally if the Hamiltonian lacks symmetries. If the Hamiltonian …

Quantum batteries, composed of quantum cells, are expected to outperform their classical
analogs. The origin of such advantages lies in the role of quantum correlations, which may …

We present a collision model for the charging of a quantum battery by identical
nonequilibrium qubit units. When the units are prepared in a mixture of energy eigenstates …

We analyze the production of entropy along nonequilibrium processes in quantum systems
coupled to generic environments. First, we show that the entropy production due to final …

The pillars of quantum theory include entanglement and operators' failure to commute. The
Page curve quantifies the bipartite entanglement of a many-body system in a random pure …

Quantum simulators have recently enabled experimental observations of the internal
thermalization of quantum many-body systems. Often, the global energy and particle number …

Coupling with an external environment inevitably affects the dynamics of a quantum system.
Here, we consider how charging performances of a quantum battery, modelled as a two …
