This workshop will explore recent theoretical advances in the fundamental principles of quantum thermodynamics, aiming especially to understand how these can be put into practice in promising experimental platforms. There has a been a proliferation of theoretical results and techniques in recent years, demonstrating many ways that thermodynamics may behave differently in the quantum regime. At the same time, the possibilities for practical demonstrations are growing with ever-better quantum control of diverse types of systems.
The invited speakers have a wide range of expertise -- theorists working on topics from open system dynamics to resource theories and experimenters using systems from optomechanics to cold atoms. In addition to invited and shorter contributed talks, there will be plenty of time for spontaneous discussions.
If you would like to participate, please e-mail benjamin.yadin@uni-siegen.de. Please also include a proposed title and abstract (and publication link where possible) if you want to be considered for a contributed talk.
