Quantum-Heat Fluctuation Relations in Three-Level Systems Under Projective Measurements

We study the statistics of energy fluctuations in a three-level quantum system subject to a sequence of projective quantum measurements. We check that, as expected, the quantum Jarzynski equality holds provided that the initial state is thermal. The latter condition is trivially satisfied for two-le...
