How does an electrochemical interface respond to changes in the electrode potential? How does the response affect the key properties of the system - energetics, excess charge, capacitance? Essential questions key to ab-initio simulations of…
We use the recently-proposed \emph{compressible cell} Ising-like model [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{120}, 120603 (2018)] to estimate the ratio between thermal expansivity and specific heat (the Gr\"uneisen parameter $\Gamma$) in supercooled…
Magneto-caloric effects (MCEs) measurement system in adiabatic condition is proposed to investigate the thermodynamic properties in pulsed magnetic fields up to 55 T. With taking the advantage of the fast field- sweep rate in pulsed field,…
The presence of a quantum critical point (QCP) can significantly affect the thermodynamic properties of a material at finite temperatures T. This is reflected, e.g., in the entropy landscape S(T, r) in the vicinity of a QCP, yielding…

Two-dimensional magnets could potentially revolutionize information technology, but their potential application to cooling technology and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in a material down to the monolayer limit remain unexplored. Herein, we…
Quantum thermodynamics aims to explore quantum features to enhance energy conversion beyond classical limits. While significant progress has been made, the understanding of caloric potentials in quantum systems remains incomplete. In this…

The element Ce exhibits an isostructural $\gamma-\alpha$ phase transition with a 15\% volume change at room temperature. The phase boundary ends in a critical point at 1.5 GPa and 480 K. We describe a model for the equation of state of Ce…
The Gr\"uneisen parameter, experimentally determined from the ratio of thermal expansion to specific heat, quantifies the pressure dependence of characteristic energy scales of matter. It is highly enhanced for Kondo lattice systems, whose…
