Equilibration and thermal machines in quantum mechanics
This dissertation is about two aspects of quantum thermodynamics, quantum equilibration and thermal machines. First, we investigate equilibration of quantum systems with regards to typical measurements. Considering any Hamiltonian, any initial state, and measurements with a small number of outcomes...
