A non-vanishing entropy production rate is a hallmark of non-equilibrium stationary states and is therefore at the heart of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. It is a manifestation of a steady circulation $J_{\rm inv}$ along the level sets of…

The information on a quantum process acquired through measurements plays a crucial role in the determination of its non-equilibrium thermodynamic properties. We report on the experimental inference of the stochastic entropy production rate…

The entropy production rate is central to the study of non-equilibrium systems. This parameter is closely connected to violation of time-reversal symmetry, energy consumption, efficiency, and other properties of interest; in short, it…
