A study published in Physical Review Letters (PRL) details a "Gambling Carnot Engine" that researchers report can attain 100% efficiency while also improving power generation. The researchers present ...
Stochastic thermodynamics is an emerging area of physics aimed at better understanding and interpreting thermodynamic concepts away from equilibrium. Over the past few years, findings in these fields ...
The rotational symmetry of general thermodynamic cycles can predict the quantity of output work (e.g., the strongest rotational symmetry corresponds to the maximum output work) under a certain ...
Recently, a great interest focussed on the study of mesoscopic hybrid devices with superconducting elements, both from a fundamental and technological point of view. Important applications of these ...
