Developing the Thermodynamics of Quantum Control

Project description

Studying quantum control through the prism of thermodynamics

Quantum control refers to the efficient manipulation of systems that obey the laws of quantum mechanics to create desired behaviours. It helps researchers gain information about the system dynamics through measurements and accelerates the pathway to useful quantum computers and other devices. Funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the TQC project aims to develop a general and widely applicable thermodynamic framework for measuring quantum control. Researchers will unify the stochastic behaviour of quantum measurements and quantum control with state-of-the-art research in stochastic quantum thermodynamics. Testable protocols that can be implemented using current quantum technology will be developed. Project results could help answer fundamental questions regarding the effectiveness, precision and efficiency of measurement-controlled sensors and engines.
