Quantum signatures in the quantum Carnot cycle
The Carnot cycle combines reversible isothermal and adiabatic strokes to obtain optimal efficiency, at the expense of a vanishing power output. Quantum Carnot-analog cycles are constructed and solved, operating irreversibly with positive power. Swift thermalization is obtained in the isotherms utili...
