In this paper we propose a framework for simulating thermal particle production in condensed matter systems. The procedure we describe can be realized by means of a quantum quench of a parameter in the model. In order to support this claim,…
We induce strong non-local interactions in a 2D Fermi gas in an optical lattice using Rydberg dressing. The system is approximately described by a $t-V$ model on a square lattice where the fermions experience isotropic nearest-neighbor…
We study nonequilibrium thermodynamics in a fermionic resonant level model with arbitrary coupling strength to a fermionic bath, taking the wide-band limit. In contrast to previous theories, we consider a system where both the level energy…

As the quantification of metabolism, nonequilibrium steady states play a central role in living matter, but are beyond the purview of equilibrium statistical mechanics. Here we develop a fermionic theory of nonequilibrium steady states in…
It is known that in quantum theory, measurements may suppress Hamiltonian dynamics of a system. A famous example is the `Quantum Zeno Effect'. This is the phenomena that if one repeats the measurements many times asking whether the system…
In this paper we study a quench protocol on thermofield double states in the presence of time-reversal symmetry that is inspired by the work of Gao, Jafferis and Wall. The deformation is a product of hermitian operators on the left and…
