Two, non-interacting two-level atoms immersed in a common bath can become mutually entangled when evolving with a Markovian, completely positive dynamics. For an environment made of external quantum fields, this phenomenon can be studied in…
Entropy production is the key to the second law of thermodynamics, and it is well defined by considering a joint unitary evolution of a system $S$ and a thermal environment $E$. However, due to the diversity of the initial state and…
Away from equilibrium, the properties of open quantum systems depend on the details of their environment. A microscopic derivation of a master equation (ME) is therefore crucial. Of particular interest are Lindblad-type equations, not only…
