Scalar and fermionic Unruh Otto engines
Abstract We investigate the behaviour of quantum heat engines, in which a qubit is put through the quantum equivalent of the Otto cycle and the heat reservoirs are due to the Unruh effect. The qubit is described by an Unruh-DeWitt detector model coupled quadratically to a scalar field and alternatel...
