Janet Anders Editor

This book has been written by over 100 internationally recognized experts in this novel research field. They were invited by the editors based on their expertise. The editors are as follows:

Dr. Felix Binder is an expert on quantum information theoretic approaches to
thermodynamics and also studies quantum models for stochastic processes as well asquantum correlations. He obtained his DPhil from the University of Oxford and currentlyworks as a research fellow at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.
Dr. Luis A. Correa is an expert on open quantum systems interested in the performanceoptimisation of quantum thermodynamic cycles (e.g. nano-scale refrigerators and quantumheat engines). He is also interested in quantum thermometry, or the precise measurementof ultra-cold temperatures with nano-scale spatialresolution.
Dr. Christian Gogolin is an expert on equilibration and thermalization in closed quantumsystems and has worked on a broad range of topics in quantum many-body andcondensed matter theory, quantum information theory, statistical mechanics, foundations ofquantum mechanics, and several others.
Dr. Janet Anders is an expert in the characterisation of work in the quantum regime andthermodynamic experiments at the microscale. She has worked on topics in quantuminformation theory and quantum thermodynamics, including quantum computation,entanglement in quantum many-body systems, thermodynamics in the strong couplinglimit, and non-equilibrium dynamics of levitated nanospheres.
Prof. Gerardo Adesso is an expert on quantum information theory and the characterisationof nonclassical correlations in open quantum systems, including their mathematicaldescription and their practical applications to quantum technologies such as cooling,thermometry, optical communication, sensing and metrol
