We study theoretically dynamics of a driven-dissipative qubit-resonator system. Specifically, a transmon qubit is coupled to a transmission-line resonator; this system is considered to be probed via a resonator, by means of either…

Measuring thermodynamic quantities can be easy or not, depending on the system that is being studied. For a macroscopic object, measuring temperatures can be as simple as measuring how much a column of mercury rises when in contact with the…
