We show that quantum fluctuations display a singularity at thermal critical points, involving the dynamical $z$ exponent. Quantum fluctuations, captured by the quantum variance (I. Fr\'erot and T. Roscilde, Phys. Rev. B 94, 075121 (2016)),…

We examine the fluctuation theorems which traditionally have been studied for classical systems and enquire if they can be extended to the quantum domain, especially at low temperatures. The example chosen is that of a problem which has…
The local physical properties of an isolated quantum statistical system in the stationary state reached long after a quench are generically described by the Gibbs ensemble, which involves only its Hamiltonian and the temperature as a…
We argue that specific fluctuations observed in high-energy nuclear collisions can be attributed to intrinsic fluctuations of temperature of the hadronizing system formed in such processes and therefore can be described by the same…
