Temperature is a hallmark parameter influencing almost all magnetic resonance properties (e.g., T\textsubscript{1}, T\textsubscript{2}, proton density, diffusion and more). In the pre-clinical setting, temperature has a large influence on…

We propose to generate heat pulses in mesoscopic conductors using light fields. In contrast to single-electron excitations such as levitons, which are created by accurate voltage drives, our approach relies on modulating the temperature of…
