量子蒸汽朋克:量子信息,热力学,它们的交叉,以及它们在物理学中的应用
Quantum steampunk: Quantum information, thermodynamics, their intersection, and applications thereof across physics
摘要:
将量子信息理论与热力学结合起来,将21世纪的技术与19世纪的原理结合起来。该联盟阐明了信息的传播,时间的流动和能量的杠杆作用。本论文对量子热力学理论,特别是量子信息论热力学理论做出了贡献。论文还包含了该理论的应用,作为一个工具包,在物理学。涉及的领域包括原子、分子和光学物理;非平衡统计力学;凝聚态;高能物理;和化学。我建议将这个项目命名为“量子蒸汽朋克”。这个词来源于蒸汽朋克文学、艺术和电影流派,将未来主义技术与19世纪的背景并列。
英文摘要:
Combining quantum information theory with thermodynamics unites 21st-century technology with 19th-century principles. The union elucidates the spread of information, the flow of time, and the leveraging of energy. This thesis contributes to the theory of quantum thermodynamics, particularly to quantum-information-theoretic thermodynamics. The thesis also contains applications of the theory, wielded as a toolkit, across physics. Fields touched on include atomic, molecular, and optical physics; nonequilibrium statistical mechanics; condensed matter; high-energy physics; and chemistry. I propose the name "quantum steampunk" for this program. The term derives from the steampunk genre of literature, art, and cinema that juxtaposes futuristic technologies with 19th-century settings.
